Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
- 2 tablespoons Granulated erythritol
- 16 ounces Cream cheese (softened)
- 1 cup Peanut butter (unsweetened, creamy)
- 2/3 cup Powdered erythritol
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 Eggs (large)
- 1/3 cup Dark chocolate (sugar-free, melted)
- 1/4 cup Heavy whipping cream
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, melted butter, and granulated erythritol. Stir until the mixture resembles wet sand.
Divide the crust mixture evenly among the muffin liners, pressing it down firmly to form a base. Set aside.
In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
Add the peanut butter, powdered erythritol, and vanilla extract to the cream cheese. Beat until fully combined.
Crack in the eggs one at a time, beating on low speed after each addition until just incorporated. Avoid overmixing to prevent cracks in your cheesecakes.
Melt the dark chocolate and heavy whipping cream together in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth.
Take a few tablespoons of the cheesecake batter and mix it with the melted chocolate mixture to create a chocolate swirl layer.
Evenly distribute the plain peanut butter cheesecake batter into the prepared muffin cups. Add a dollop of the chocolate mixture on top and swirl gently with a toothpick for a marbled effect.
Bake the cheesecakes in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers still have a slight jiggle.
Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Refrigerate the cheesecakes for at least 2 hours before serving for best texture and flavor.
