Aimee’s Recipe Notes
Cheesecake can be one of the easiest, and most indulgent desserts. From it’s buttery crust to the creamy, tangy filling.
Today’s version is made sugar-free. With some experimenting to make my sugar-free cheesecake, I took it to a new level and added some Lily’s chocolate chips.
I love the texture of the slightly crunchy chocolate paired with the creamy cheesecake filling. Add a little extra sugar-free whipped cream on top for a dessert that is simple and delicious!
Ingredients You’ll Need
- Almond Flour- if you don’t want the recipe to be gluten free, you can use all-purpose flour (or keep it gluten free by using King Arthur measure for measure GF flour). I love the nutty flavor though of almond flour.
- Powdered Monk Fruit Sweetener- this adds the sweetness without the added sugar. It’s natural and doesn’t leave the cooling effect on your tongue. I love this brand on Amazon. You could swap it out for Stevia.
- Cream Cheese- Full-fat cream cheese is the base of this easy no bake cheesecake. Soften to room temperature for a smooth, lump-free filling.
- Optional Toppings- Homemade whipped cream (made with powdered monk fruit) and extra Lily’s chocolate chips.

Quick and easy, this Sugar-Free Chocolate Chip Cheesecake recipe is creamy and rich, but also gluten-free and sugar-free! It starts with a buttery almond crust and is loaded with sugar-free chocolate chips!
Ingredients
For the Crust
- 2 cups almond flour
- 3 Tablespoons powdered monk fruit
- 6 Tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
For the Cheesecake
- 3 packages (8 ounce each) cream cheese, softened to room temperature
- 1 ¼ cup powdered monk fruit

- ⅓ cup heavy whipping cream

For the Topping
- 1 ½ cups sugar free whipped cream
Instructions
- Line a 9-inch square baking dish with parchment paper. Set it aside.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, powdered monk fruit, and melted butter with a fork. Spread crumbs in the bottom of the prepared baking dish and press crumbs firmly. Chill crust while making the cheesecake filling.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese with powdered monk fruit for 3-4 minutes until fluffy. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.

Notes
- I prefer Lily’s chocolate chips. They are a creamy sweet chocolate that is surprisingly sugar free!
- Almond Flour– I love keeping this recipe gluten free, but if you prefer, you can swap out the almond flour for all-purpose flour. You could also use King Arthur Measure for Measure gluten free flour too.
- Powdered Monk Fruit– I love this brand on Amazon. You could swap it out for Stevia.
- Serve sugar free cheesecake with homemade whipped cream made with monk fruit instead of sugar.
- Storage: Keep this cheesecake in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Or freeze for up to 3 months.
