Keto Chocotorta Cups are a delicious and guilt-free dessert option that combines rich chocolate flavors with a creamy filling, perfect for those following a keto diet.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup powdered erythritol (or your choice of keto sweetener)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (for dusting)
- Chocolate shavings or keto-friendly chocolate chips (for garnish, optional)
Instructions
- Mix the almond flour, cocoa powder, powdered erythritol, and salt in a large bowl until thoroughly combined.
- Pour in the melted butter and vanilla extract, stirring until a cohesive dough forms.
- Firmly press this mixture into the base of 6 silicone muffin cups or a muffin tin lined with paper liners to create a solid crust.
- In a separate bowl, whip the softened cream cheese until it reaches a creamy consistency.
- Gradually incorporate the heavy whipping cream and almond milk, continuing to beat until the mixture is light and fluffy.
- Carefully distribute the cream cheese blend over the crust in each cup, using a spatula to smooth the surface.
- Place the cups in the refrigerator for a minimum of 2 hours to allow them to firm up.
- Just before serving, lightly dust the tops with unsweetened cocoa powder and add chocolate shavings or keto-friendly chocolate chips for an extra touch, if desired.
Notes
- For an enhanced flavor profile, consider adding a teaspoon of instant coffee granules to the cream cheese mixture for a delightful mocha flavor.
- If you prefer a different texture, swap almond flour for coconut flour, using only 1/4 cup as it absorbs more moisture.
