How do you make Keto Chocolate Cheesecake Bites?

This is an easy dessert and ready in no time. Feel free to watch the short video tutorial attached. The general steps are as follows:

  • Mix: In a bowl, simply combine the ingredients.
  • Chill: Place the dough in the fridge until it is set and ready to shape into one-inch balls. Form truffle sized balls and place them on a baking sheet.
  • Coat: In a bowl, add the cocoa powder. Then, dunk the small bites to coat.

Is cream cheese Keto?

Yes, it is as most other cheeses are. Note that this ingredient can also be high in calories but in this kind of diet, it is okay to eat fatty food to support the body’s energy requirement.

Is cocoa powder considered Keto?

Yes, it is. It has minimal net carbs that are also attributed to fiber. Hence, you can eat it in this low-carb diet and then, enjoy the flavor!

What types of sugar can you eat on a keto diet?

To reach ketosis which is the goal of those in this kind of diet, one must not eat any sugar that is carbohydrates-rich. But some substitutes can make any dessert sweet but still keto. Here are some:

  • Stevia: a plant-based sweetener that has almost zero calories but is sweeter than regular sugar, one teaspoon can replace a cup of sugar.
  • Xylitol: a common sweetener used in candies and is a kind of sugar alcohol, add it to coffee, shakes, and other beverages in a 1:1 ratio.
  • Sucralose: it goes through the digestive system untouched which means that it does not contribute any calories to the body, it is extremely sweet compared to the regular sugar.

Note that these sweeteners do not raise the levels of blood sugar in the body and hence, they are of a low glycemic index.

How to store Keto Chocolate Cheesecake Bites?

  • Refrigerate: You can keep this in the fridge for about 2 to 3 days, kept in an airtight container.
  • Freeze: It can also be frozen to extend the shelf life to about 2 to 3 months. Just thaw before you eat it.

Recipe Tips:

  • If you wish to make it into small squares instead of balls, then, you can use a silicone mold. Press on the dough to shape and then, cut into small squares.
  • You can also try other shapes and be creative with them!
  • You can also roll these in coconut flakes or pecan nuts for added texture and still adhering to the low-carb diet.
