  • 3 tbsp melted butter
  • 2 tbsp powdered erythritol
  • 16 oz cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup powdered erythritol
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F. Line a muffin tin with 6 silicone or paper liners.

Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups heavy whipping cream

  • ¼ tsp xanthan gum (optional, for thickening)
  • Fresh strawberry slices and mint leaves for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a small saucepan, combine strawberries, water, and 1 tbsp powdered erythritol. Cook over medium heat, mashing strawberries with a fork, until softened and saucy, about 5 minutes. If desired, stir in xanthan gum to thicken. Remove from heat and let cool completely.
  2. In a large bowl, beat heavy whipping cream with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
  3. In another bowl, beat cream cheese, ⅓ cup powdered erythritol, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
  4. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture in two additions, until just combined and no streaks remain.
  5. Spoon half of the mousse into four serving cups or glasses. Drizzle a spoonful of cooled strawberry puree over each, then swirl gently with a toothpick or skewer.
  6. Top with remaining mousse, then add another layer of strawberry puree and swirl again.
  7. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until set. Garnish with fresh strawberry slices and mint leaves before serving.

Serving Tip

For an extra touch of indulgence, top each cup with a dollop of sugar-free whipped cream and a crumbled keto graham cracker crust. These cups can be made a day ahead, making party prep a breeze.

Plus, they’re portion-controlled, so you can indulge without the guilt.

Ingredients

  • For the crust: 1/2 cup almond flour, 2 tbsp melted butter, 1 tbsp powdered erythritol
  • For the filling: 8 oz cream cheese, softened; 1/4 cup powdered erythritol; 1 tsp vanilla extract; 1/2 cup heavy cream; 1 large egg; 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • For the chocolate shell: 4 oz sugar-free dark chocolate (85% cocoa or higher), chopped; 1 tbsp coconut oil
  • For topping: 6 fresh strawberries, thinly sliced

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F. Line a 6-cup muffin tin with silicone or paper liners.
  2. Make the crust: In a small bowl, mix almond flour, melted butter, and powdered erythritol until combined. Divide evenly among the 6 cups (about 1 tbsp each) and press firmly into the bottom. Bake for 8 minutes, then set aside to cool.
  3. Make the filling: In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and powdered erythritol until smooth. Add vanilla, heavy cream, egg, and lemon juice; beat until just combined. Do not overmix.
  4. Divide filling evenly over the crusts (about 1/4 cup each). Bake for 18–20 minutes, until edges are set but centers jiggle slightly. Turn off oven, crack door, and let cool inside for 30 minutes. Then refrigerate for at least 4 hours, until firm.
  5. Make the chocolate shell: Melt chocolate and coconut oil together in a double boiler or microwave in 20-second bursts, stirring until smooth. Let cool slightly.
  6. Remove cheesecake cups from the fridge. Carefully peel off liners. Place each cup on a fork or skewer and dip into melted chocolate, turning to coat all sides. Let excess drip off, then place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Immediately top each with a strawberry slice before the chocolate sets.
  7. Refrigerate for 15 minutes to set the chocolate. Serve chilled.

Serving Tip

For an extra touch, drizzle a little melted white chocolate or sprinkle flaky sea salt over the top before the chocolate hardens. These cups keep well in the fridge for up to 5 days, but the chocolate shell is best within 2 days—after that, it may start to bloom.

Serving Tip

For an extra pop of color and texture, top each cup with a tiny piece of fresh strawberry or a sprinkle of crushed freeze-dried strawberries just before serving. These keep well in the fridge for up to a week, but they're at their best when slightly chilled—not rock hard—so let them sit at room temperature for 5 minutes if frozen.
