Instructions:
- Whip the Cream:
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form. This should take about 3-5 minutes on high speed. Once the cream is whipped, set it aside.
- Mix the Cream Cheese:
- In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with the powdered sweetener and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. This should take about 2-3 minutes. You can also add lemon juice here if you prefer a tangier flavor to balance the sweetness.
- Fold in the Whipped Cream:
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture using a spatula. Be careful not to deflate the whipped cream too much, as you want to maintain the fluffy texture. Mix until well combined.
- Add the Strawberries:
- Stir in the chopped strawberries gently, making sure they are evenly distributed throughout the fluff. If you prefer a smoother texture, you can mash the strawberries slightly before adding them to the mixture.
- Chill:
- Refrigerate the strawberry cheesecake fluff for at least 1-2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to firm up slightly.
- Serve:
- Serve chilled. You can garnish with additional fresh strawberries or a sprinkle of extra sweetener if desired. For added texture, top with chopped nuts or a few keto-friendly chocolate chips.
Tips:
- Sweetness Level: Adjust the amount of sweetener according to your preference. If you prefer a sweeter dessert, feel free to add more sweetener to taste.
- Make-Ahead: This dessert can be made ahead of time and stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- For Extra Texture: Add a few crushed almonds or pecans for some crunch, or top with a dollop of whipped cream just before serving.
