Cheesecakes is definitely one of my favorite cakes, or pies? I don't even know. This is just a first time realization, cheesecakes but they can also be a pie! I just googles the difference, so: a pie is usually known for the crust that covers the filling or it contains it. A cake on the other hand it is more like a bread...

I'm all about creating recipes that will nourish your body and will make those tastebuds happy and ingredients are essential here! Here are some replacements to make your recipes better:
- Use monk fruit instead of cane sugar
- Use coconut flour or nut flours instead of wheat flour
- Use unsweetened nut milks instead of milk
In this case we won't be using regular cream cheese, we are going to be using almond based cream cheese that tastes as delicious as the regular one. And for sugar, my favorite low carb and keto friendly one Lakanto's Monk Fruit (PURELYHL for discount).
No baking needed, just a mixing bowl and a silicone muffin cups! These can be stored in the freezer for weeks! Ready to grab-n-go!
In this recipe I also included some sliced and chopped almonds for a special touch and of course, chocolate chips! I use low carb chocolate chips. As decoration I only used super color powders from Suncore Foods.
Overall, this recipe is simple and delicious. It contains just 3.3g grams of net carbs (9 total, 5.7g from fiber), perfect if you are following a low carb lifestyle or you are just trying new recipes!
