Keto Cheesecake Cups (Keto Fluff), a super easy and delicious low-carb dessert:
Ingredients (Makes 4 servings):
- 8 oz (225g) cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1/4 cup powdered erythritol (or your preferred keto-friendly sweetener, adjusted to taste)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp lemon juice (optional, for a slight tang)
Optional Toppings:
- Fresh berries (e.g., raspberries, strawberries, or blueberries)
- Sugar-free caramel sauce
- Sugar-free chocolate sauce or shavings
Instructions:
- Prepare the Cream Cheese:
- In a mixing bowl, use a hand mixer to beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and fluffy (about 1–2 minutes).
- Whip the Cream:
- In a separate bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream with the hand mixer until stiff peaks form (this will take about 3–4 minutes). Be careful not to overwhip.
- Combine:
- Gradually add the powdered erythritol, vanilla extract, and lemon juice to the cream cheese. Beat until fully combined.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture. Use a spatula to fold, being careful not to deflate the whipped cream.
- Assemble:
- Spoon the mixture into 4 small serving cups or ramekins. Smooth the tops with a spoon.
- Chill:
- Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to firm up, or serve immediately for a softer texture.
- Add Toppings:
- Just before serving, top with your favorite keto-friendly toppings like berries, caramel, or chocolate sauce.
