Ingredients for Making Keto Mini Cheesecake Bites

• Cream Cheese: Make sure that you use full-fat cream cheese and that you allow it to come to room temperature before using.
• Eggs: I recommend using large eggs and allowing them to come to room temperature with the cream cheese.
• Sweetener: I used swerve confectioners, but feel free to use your favorite sugar-free keto sweetener.
• Vanilla Extract: Use the best quality you can.
• Salt: You don’t want to use more than a pinch of salt, but don’t skip it. It brings out the flavors.
• Cocoa Powder: Use unsweetened cocoa powder. Keto-friendly cacao powder may also be used.

Tips & Tricks

• If you want to make this keto cheesecake bites recipe with a crust, my Keto Pecan Crust is a great option!
• Make sure that you let the ingredients come to room temperature before mixing. This will yield the smoothest cheesecake.
• When choosing cream cheese, always read the label. The number of carbohydrates can vary by brand.
• If you routinely have issues with baking times being incorrect, I recommend making a small investment in an oven thermometer. I was once surprised to learn that my brand new oven was 30° F off!
• If you are using paper muffin liners, try spraying them with oil to prevent sticking.

Serving Suggestions

These Mini Cheesecake Bites are great as they are, but if you want to liven them up, try topping them with my Keto Raspberry Sauce or a keto-friendly chocolate sauce. Or top them with whipped cream and fresh berries.

Another great option is a keto-friendly stevia sweetened strawberry jam thinned out with a touch of fresh lemon juice.
