When you need a treat, this Low-Carb No Bake Cherry Cheesecake Dessert is delicious and easy to make.
INGREDIENTS
INGREDIENTS:
- 12 ounces cream cheese, allow to soften at room temperature at least 1 hour
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 6 T Monkfruit Sweetener (see notes)
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract or slightly more if you like a strong vanilla flavor
TOPPING OPTIONS:
- 2 cups No Sugar Added Cherry Pie Filling (see notes)
INSTRUCTIONS
- Take cream cheese out of the fridge, unwrap, and place in a bowl on the counter for at least an hour to soften.
- Put the heavy cream into a different bowl and beat with hand beater (affiliate link) until it forms soft peaks.
- When the cream cheese has softened, use the same beater to combine it with the Monkfruit Sweetener (affiliate link) and vanilla.
- Beat whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture, using low speed of electric mixer.
- Transfer mixture to 6 individual small ramekins or glass dishes and chill at least one hour.
- When you’re ready to serve top each serving with No Sugar Added Cherry Pie Filling (affiliate link) or fresh berries.
- I only found 20 oz. cans of pie filling and used 1/3 cup per cheesecake, but a smaller can would have been plenty and using less of the topping would reduce the carb count.
NOTES
The recommended serving of 1/3 cup for the No-Sugar Added Cherry Pie Filling was used in calculating nutritional information, but if you prefer use less of the topping or use fresh berries, both of which will be lower in carbs.
