Healthy Chocolate Cheesecake Recipe
This keto and low carb inspired chocolate cheesecake really will satisfy your cravings and leave you wanting more. Here I have used coconut cream and a slice of dairy-free cream cheese, although double cream and the cream cheese of your choice would work brilliantly too.
The keto chocolate cheesecake would pair beautifully with extra berries, a dollop of coconut yogurt, or a drizzle of coconut cream. Store the chocolate keto cheesecake in the fridge. In like to keep the cheesecake slightly chilled. The cheesecake will last up to 5 days, likely more.
