PIN Easy Sugar Free No Bake Keto Cheesecake Recipe
Nope, you are not dreaming.
A NO BAKE LOW CARB CHEESECAKE. FOR ONE IS A TRUE-LIFE REALITY.
The creamiest, velvety-smoothest and SO SO SO dreamy ketogenic cheesecake JUST 4 YOU. NO slicing, NO SHARING.
Just a little you + spoon + bowl of cheesecake-y BLISS.
It is recipes like this that make me VERY VERY excited to be a food blogger on account of I got to test this recipe 5 times in 2 days just for the sake of making sure it was perfect.
But, both you and I know that it’s truly just because cheesecake is my most favorite dessert on this big blue and green swirly ball of air that we call Earth. Cannot even WAIT until Christmas when we bring back the sugar cookie Greek Yogurt Gluten Free Cheesecake and Chocolate No Bake Peppermint Cheesecake Cups.
But, it’s only August so let’s not get ahead of ourselves. Back to the low carb cheesecake recipe at hand.
FOCUS FOCUS FOCUS.
Is cheesecake low carb?
Typically, cheesecake is NOT low carb, since it’s sweetened with a A LOT of sugar. It has the MAKINGS of a low carb dessert with all that cream cheese, but the sugar prevents it from being so.
Except, HELLO ERYTHRITOL, you are perfect and sweet and powdery and SUGAR FREE which means you are making this easy sugar free no bake keto cheesecake recipe FIT THE BILLLLLL.
Side note: every time I type “erythritol” I have to Google it to make sure I am spelling it right. *PAUSE* Gonna go do that now.
Okay back.
You and I both know that I didn’t actually go Google. I went to my fridge and took a little cheesecake snack break. PRIORITIES YO.
What can I use instead of powered erythritol?
I have actually tried this recipe with granular erythritol and monkfruit and they just don’t work. They both work in the sense of taste, but the texture is grainy. If you don’t mind that, then you can use those options! OR, you can put granular erythritol in a high-powered blender and – POOF – homemade powered sugar free sweetener!
Is your mind blown by that discovery?
You could obviously use regular powdered sugar too, if you don’t care about carbs and sugar! YOUR FOOD, YOUR RULES.
How long does it take a cheesecake to set in the fridge?
A typical cheesecake takes AT LEAST 6 hours to set, but better overnight. But, because this EASY keto cheesecake doesn’t require baking, there are only 2 hours standing between you and your cheesecake-all-to-yourself-date.
SEE ALSO: only 5 INGREDIENTS. <– 6 if you count vanilla. But everyone has it at home. It doesn’t count.
Don’t you love days where you can write “eat cheesecake all by myself” on your “to-do” list and then cross it off in the SAME DAY?
Am I the only one that writes really easy stuff on my list (think: breathe, sleep, eat food) JUST so I can cross a lot off and feel VRY VRY productive?
On second thought, don’t answer that. I don’t want to expose the weirdness of my living-life-patterns.
I’m just gonna be all “HERE” and shove a bowl of cheese cake in your face ‘cause after you taste one perfectly-sweet, vanilla-swirled bite of CHEESECAKE FOR YOU, you’re gonna forget I even asked.
At least that’s my goal.

Love single-serving desserts! These would be delicious topped with summer ripe berries! 🙂
Taylor Kiser says
Oh yes! Such a perfect combo!
TRACY TURNER says
Can I use Lakanto sweetner that is part Erythritol and monk fruit?
Taylor Kiser says
Totally! 🙂
Danielle says
I love that this is an individual portion. I love dessert, but don’t like making anything that leaves me with a lot of leftovers.
Taylor Kiser says
SO with you Danielle!!
Elizabeth says
I really ought to experiment more with these sweeteners. Do you think liquid sweeteners would work ok? This sounds like such a great low carb way to satisfy that sweet tooth!
Taylor Kiser says
Hmm, I do think that liquid would throw off the texture! But, let us know if you try!
Karli says
I added cacao powder to mine and sweetened it with maple syrup and swerve (which was not fine-textured so I dissolved it in warm water) and the texture isn’t exactly cheesecake-y but it is good enough for me!
Claudia Lamascolo says

Taylor Kiser says
I so hope he loves it! 🙂

Love the “just for me” serving idea.
But if I had company, how would I make like a normal amount.. Pie/cake size??
Do you have a recipe {ingredients and amounts list for that size?
I just not math inclined enough to figure it out for myself apparently! LOL
Taylor Kiser says
Hi! I don’t have a big recipe for this, so I’m not sure – sorry! I can’t tell you for sure if it would even work as a big size!
