Low carb cheesecake recipe
Prep time: 15 mins
Cook time: 60 mins
Total time: 1 hour 15 mins
Ingredients
  • 1 almond low carb crust (see below)
  • 16 oz. of cream cheese (2 – 8 oz. packages)
  • 1 cup of artificial sweetener
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 3 eggs
  • ¼ cup sour cream
Directions
  1. Beat cream cheese until it seems fluffy
  2. Add sugar and vanilla and beat until well combined.
  3. Add eggs one at a time and beat until creamy
  4. Place empty into almond crust into a pan slightly larger than crust pan. Fill with water to halfway up the cake pan. Fill with mixture until full and carefully push rack (and cheesecake) into the oven.
  5. Bake for 50-60 minutes keeping a careful eye on the edges if you start to see some browning your cheesecake is ready to be pulled out.
  6. Place cheesecake on a cooling rack for 1-2 hours. Though if you are in a hurry you can speed up the cooling by placing your cheesecake in the refrigerator after 10-15 minutes though you significantly increase the chance of causing an ugly split down the middle of your nice cheesecake.
  7. Finish with 1 cup of whipped heavy whipping cream sweetened with 1 tablespoon of Splenda.
  8. After cooling for 1-2 hours cool overnight (if you can wait that long) top with some unsweetened berries or a little whipping cream.
