In a medium bowl, mix together the almond flour, cocoa powder, erythritol, and vanilla extract.
-
Add the melted butter and crushed sugar-free chocolate cookies, stirring until everything is well combined.

Prepare the filling:

-
Gradually add the powdered erythritol, vanilla extract, and salt to the cream cheese, and mix until fully combined.
-
Gently fold in the whipped heavy cream until the mixture is smooth and creamy. If you’re using the crushed sugar-free chocolate cookies in the filling, fold them in now.

FAQs
Can I use a different sweetener besides erythritol?
Yes, you can use any low-carb sweetener of your choice, such as monk fruit sweetener, stevia, or a blend like Swerve. Just make sure to adjust the quantities based on the sweetness of the sweetener you’re using.
Can I make the crust without almond flour?
Almond flour gives the crust a low-carb, nutty flavor, but you can substitute it with coconut flour if you prefer. If using coconut flour, reduce the amount by about half.
Can I use regular cream cheese instead of keto-friendly cream cheese?
Yes, you can use regular cream cheese. However, be aware that the carb count will increase if you’re not following a strict keto diet.
Can I make this cheesecake without a springform pan?
If you don’t have a springform pan, you can use a regular pie dish or a square baking pan. Just line it with parchment paper to make it easier to remove the cheesecake.
How can I make the cheesecake firmer?
If you want a firmer texture, you can add a little gelatin. Dissolve about 1 tablespoon of unflavored gelatin in 2 tablespoons of warm water and mix it into the cream cheese filling before refrigerating.
Is this cheesecake gluten-free?
Yes, this cheesecake is gluten-free! It uses almond flour for the crust, which is naturally gluten-free, and no wheat-based ingredients are included in the filling.
