Equipment

  • Mixing bowl
  • Hand Mixer or Stand Mixer
  • Measuring cups
  • Measuring spoons
  • Spatula
  • Serving cups or bowls (for portioning and serving)

Ingredients
  

  • 8 Ounces (225 grams) Cream Cheese (Softened)
  • 1 Cup (240 ml) Heavy Whipping Cream
  • 1/3 Cup (65 grams) Keto-Friendly Sweetener (such as erythritol or stevia, adjust to taste)
  • 1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract

Optional:

  • 1 Teaspoon Llemon Zest (for added flavor)
  • Berries (for garnish)
  • Keto-friendly chocolate chips (for mix-ins)

Instructions
 

  • Cream Cheese
  • Cream cheese is the main ingredient that provides the rich and creamy texture to the cheesecake fluff. It should be softened at room temperature to ensure smooth blending with other ingredients.
  • Heavy Whipping Cream
  • Heavy whipping cream adds lightness and fluffiness to the dessert. It is whipped to stiff peaks before being folded into the cream cheese mixture, contributing to the airy texture of the fluff.
  • Sweetener (e.g., erythritol or stevia)
  • A keto-friendly sweetener such as erythritol or stevia is used to sweeten the fluff without adding extra carbs. These sweeteners are low in calories and do not spike blood sugar levels, making them suitable for a ketogenic diet. The amount can be adjusted according to taste preferences.
  • Vanilla Extract
  • Vanilla extract enhances the flavor of the cheesecake fluff, providing a subtle and aromatic sweetness. It complements the cream cheese and sweetener, adding depth to the overall taste of the dessert.

Optional Ingredients:

  • Lemon Zest: Adding lemon zest to the fluff can give it a refreshing citrusy flavor, balancing the richness of the cream cheese and cream. It adds a bright note to the dessert.
  • Berries: Berries such as strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries can be used as a garnish or mixed into the fluff for added freshness and fruity sweetness. They also provide a pop of color.
  • Keto-Friendly Chocolate Chips: If desired, keto-friendly chocolate chips can be folded into the fluff for a chocolatey twist. Look for sugar-free chocolate chips that are suitable for a ketogenic diet.

Notes

  1. Soften the Cream Cheese:
    • Ensure the cream cheese is softened at room temperature before mixing. This helps achieve a smooth and lump-free texture in the fluff.
  2. Chill the Equipment:
    • For better whipping results, you can chill the mixing bowl and beaters in the refrigerator for about 10-15 minutes before using them. This helps the heavy cream whip up more easily and achieve stiff peaks.
  3. Whip Cream to Stiff Peaks:
    • When whipping the heavy cream, make sure to beat it until stiff peaks form. This provides the fluff with its light and airy texture. Be careful not to over-whip, as this can turn the cream into butter.
  4. Fold, Don’t Mix:
    • Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture to maintain the fluffiness. Avoid over-mixing, which can deflate the whipped cream and result in a denser texture.
  5. Adjust Sweetness to Taste:
    • The amount of sweetener can be adjusted based on personal preference. Start with the recommended amount and add more if needed. Different sweeteners have varying levels of sweetness, so taste and adjust accordingly.
  6. Optional Flavors and Add-Ins:
    • Customize your cheesecake fluff by adding lemon zest for a citrus flavor, or mix in keto-friendly chocolate chips or fresh berries. These additions can enhance the flavor and provide variety.
  7. Serving and Storage:
    • Serve the fluff in individual dessert cups for a pleasing presentation. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator. The fluff can be kept fresh for up to 3-5 days.
  8. Dietary Adjustments:
    • Ensure all ingredients, especially sweeteners and chocolate chips, are keto-friendly and fit within your dietary guidelines. Check labels for hidden carbs and sugars.
By following these important notes, you can ensure that your Keto Cheesecake Fluff turns out perfectly every time, providing a delicious and satisfying low-carb dessert.
