KETO CHEESECAKE BROWNIES
Keto cheesecake brownies are rich, fudgy, and irresistibly creamy, combining a deep chocolate brownie base with a smooth cheesecake swirl — all without the sugar or carbs. This dessert feels indulgent while staying perfectly keto-friendly.
Ingredients:
For the Brownie Layer:
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1/2 cup sugar-free chocolate chips
2 large eggs
1/2 cup powdered erythritol or monk fruit sweetener
1/3 cup almond flour
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
For the Cheesecake Layer:
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup powdered erythritol or monk fruit sweetener
1 large egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper and lightly grease.
In a microwave-safe bowl or saucepan, melt the butter and sugar-free chocolate chips together until smooth. Let cool slightly.
Whisk the eggs and sweetener into the chocolate mixture until glossy. Stir in the almond flour, cocoa powder, vanilla extract, and salt until just combined.
Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan and smooth evenly.
In a separate bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add the sweetener, egg, and vanilla extract, mixing until creamy.
Drop spoonfuls of the cheesecake mixture over the brownie layer. Use a knife or skewer to gently swirl the two layers together.
Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until the center is just set and slightly soft.
Let cool completely in the pan, then refrigerate for at least 1 hour before slicing for clean cuts.
Helpful Tips:
Do not overbake — keto brownies firm up as they cool.
Use powdered sweetener to prevent graininess.
Chill before slicing for perfect layers.
Serving Suggestions:
Serve chilled or at room temperature.
Top with a few sugar-free chocolate chips or whipped cream.
Perfect as a keto dessert or special treat.
Storage:
Store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Freeze individual squares for longer storage.
Keto cheesecake brownies are rich, creamy, and deeply chocolatey — a low-carb dessert that truly tastes like a cheat.
