Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups almond flour
- ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ½ cup erythritol or preferred keto sweetener
- ½ cup melted butter
- 3 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup powdered erythritol
- 3 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons instant espresso powder
- Pinch of salt
- Sugar-free chocolate shavings for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C) and grease a 9-inch springform pan.
- Make the Crust: In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, cocoa powder, erythritol, and melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom of the prepared springform pan to form an even layer. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove from the oven and let cool.
- Prepare the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add sour cream and powdered erythritol, mixing until combined. Incorporate eggs one at a time, followed by vanilla extract, instant espresso powder, and a pinch of salt. Mix until smooth and creamy.
- Bake the Cheesecake: Pour the cream cheese mixture over the cooled crust. Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center has a slight jiggle.
- Cool and Chill: Allow the cheesecake to cool in the oven with the door slightly open for about 1 hour. Then, refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to firm up.
- Serve: Once chilled, remove the cheesecake from the springform pan. Garnish with sugar-free chocolate shavings if desired. Slice and enjoy your Keto Mocha Cheesecake!
