  • 2 tbsp erythritol (or favorite keto sweetener)
  • Pinch of salt

For the cheesecake filling:

  • 1/4 cup erythritol
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Tools needed:

How to Make Keto Snickers Cheesecakes

  1. Preheat & prep: Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. Make the crust: In a small bowl, mix almond flour, cocoa powder, melted butter, erythritol, and salt until crumbly. Divide evenly between muffin cups and press down firmly.
  3. Beat the filling: In a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese with erythritol until smooth. Add heavy cream and vanilla, mixing until creamy and fluffy.
  4. Assemble: Spoon cheesecake filling over crusts, smoothing tops with a spatula.
  5. Bake: Bake for 15–18 minutes, or until edges are set but centers still jiggle slightly. Cool completely.
  6. Top it off: Sprinkle chopped peanuts on top, drizzle with melted chocolate, and optional keto caramel. Chill until set.

What to Serve with Keto Snickers Cheesecakes

Pair these little beauties with:

  • A cup of strong espresso or keto bulletproof coffee
  • Fresh berries for a pop of tartness
  • A dollop of whipped cream (sugar-free, of course!)

Tips for Making It Perfect

  • Room-temp cream cheese is your best friend—no lumps!
  • Don’t overbake; cheesecakes should still have a slight wobble when done.
  • Chill before serving for the best texture and flavor.

Storage Instructions

  • Fridge: Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
  • Freezer: Wrap individually and freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge before serving.
