Whip up this creamy, decadent dessert in only five minutes!
I’ve heard some people say “It’s got all the good stuff and no fluff,” but truly, this recipe is all fluff, and it’s more than good! If you’re craving a crust-free dessert that’s low-carb and incredibly creamy, then meet keto cheesecake fluff. It’s the velvety, cream cheese filling of cheesecake without any crust or crumble. In many ways, it’s similar to mousse, with each mouthful being more satisfying than the last.
Did I mention it only takes five minutes to make? Yep, this no-bake recipe is no joke! So if you have a sudden hankering for a sweet and smooth dessert, look no further than keto cheesecake fluff. You can dress it up with a topping of berries or eat it plain. I like to swirl some ground cinnamon into mine, but the beauty of this recipe is that you can play with it to your liking. Like ice cream or frozen yogurt, cheesecake fluff is both simple and versatile, able to be accompanied by all kinds of sweet treats or toppings.
Is Keto Cheesecake Fluff Healthy?
This dazzling little dessert is a great option for gluten-free folk who love cheesecake but can’t have the crust! With a fine sugar-free sweetener like stevia or xylitol powder, this cheesecake fluff is also a great way to accommodate a keto diet without sacrificing sweet satisfaction. Plus, containing five grams of protein from the cream cheese, and a little dose of calcium, it also offers some nutritional value, too.
Like Cheesecake Without The Crust…
While regular cheesecake usually has a high-carb crust, this dessert takes the keto-friendly cake. Without a crust or crumble, it’s not only low-carb, but also much smoother in texture. But why is this a big deal? Well, for any cheesecake lovers who follow a keto or gluten-free diet, this recipe is inspiring. The keto diet is based on low-carb and high-fat dishes so that the body naturally goes into ketosis — the process of burning fat instead of carbohydrates for energy. Some people follow this diet to lose weight, although it was first developed in 1921 as a treatment for epilepsy.

FAQs & Tips
Once everything is combined, you can cover and chill keto cheesecake fluff in the fridge for up to 5 days. For longer storage, freeze in a freezer-safe container for up to 3 months. Make sure to thaw it in the fridge overnight before serving it cold. I like to whip it up with a fork or whisk to re-fluff it right before digging in.
This cheesecake fluff is keto-friendly because it uses cream cheese and heavy cream (high-fat, low-carb ingredients) and sugar-free sweetener. These make it perfect for staying within keto guidelines.
Yes, but make sure to use unsweetened cocoa powder, and a little extra sugar-free sweetener.
Aside from fresh berries (which are totally optional), there’s a whole array of tasty toppings you could sprinkle on keto cheesecake fluff. Try sugar-free chocolate shavings, cinnamon, almond slices, pumpkin seeds, or unsweetened coconut flakes. Really, as long as the topping has zero sugar, you’re good to go!
Serving Suggestions
