Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz Cream cheese, softened
- 1 Egg
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 3 tbsp Sugar substitute (e.g., stevia or erythritol)
- 4 tbsp Almond flour (optional, for crust-like base)
- 2 tbsp Unsalted butter, melted (optional, for crust-like base)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a mini muffin tin with paper liners or grease them lightly to prevent sticking.
If using the optional almond flour base, mix almond flour and melted butter in a small bowl until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Scoop a small amount into the bottom of each muffin cup and press down firmly to form a thin crust. Set aside.
In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese using a hand or stand mixer until smooth and creamy.
Add the egg, vanilla extract, and sugar substitute to the cream cheese mixture. Continue beating until fully combined and smooth.
Spoon the cream cheese mixture evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12–15 minutes, or until the cheesecake tops are set but still jiggle slightly in the center when shaken.
Let the nibbles cool in the muffin tin for 10 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
For best results, refrigerate the cheesecake nibbles for at least 2 hours before serving to allow them to firm up and develop their full flavor.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
