Time 5h10m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups blanched almond flour
⅓ cup butter, melted
3 tablespoons powdered erythritol sweetener
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1 ¼ cups powdered erythritol sweetener
3 large eggs
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon lemon zest

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan. Line the bottom with parchment paper. Wrap the bottom and sides of the pan with aluminum foil if worried about leakage.
  • Stir almond flour, butter, erythritol, and vanilla extract together in a small bowl until well combined; the mixture will be crumbly. Press into the prepared pan bottom.
  • Bake on the center rack until in the preheated oven until just golden, 10 to 12 minutes. Allow to cool for 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, beat cream cheese and powdered sweetener together using an electric stand or hand mixer at low speed until fluffy. Beat in eggs, 1 at a time. Add lemon juice, vanilla extract, and lemon zest. Beat until well combined.
  • Bake on the center rack in the preheated oven until center is almost set and slightly jiggly in the center, 45 to 55 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan. Keep in the pan, cover, and refrigerate to fully set, at least 4 hours, to overnight. Run a knife gently around the sides to remove, unclamp, and carefully remove the pan; it should come right off.

Thanks to 'Wendy' from the low-carb support newsgroup for this recipe. Its very easy and good enough for non-dieters also. The only way I modified this recipe was to reduce slightly the amount of DaVinci syrup.

Time 10m

Yield 10 slices

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (1 ounce) package sugar-free lemon Jell-O powder
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese
4 (1 g) packets Splenda sugar substitute
1 cup boiling water
1/4 cup da vinci vanilla coffee syrup

Steps:

  • Boil water and dissolve lemon Jell-O.
  • Mix in softened cream cheese, Splenda, and syrup.
  • Beat with a mixer for about 3 minutes or until well blended and fluffy.
  • Pour into a Pam sprayed pie pan, and refrigerate until firm.
  • You can use other flavors of Jell-O for this.
  • Strawbery and lime are also excellent.
  • Top with freshly whipped cream.

Tips:

  • Use a food processor to make the crust. This will help you get a fine, even crumb.
  • Press the crust firmly into the pan. This will help it stay together when you bake it.
  • Bake the crust for 10-12 minutes. This will help it set and prevent it from becoming soggy.
  • Let the crust cool completely before filling it. This will help prevent the filling from cracking.
  • Use a hand mixer to beat the cream cheese and sweetener until smooth. This will help prevent lumps in the filling.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help prevent the filling from curdling.
  • Stir in the lemon juice and zest. This will give the filling a bright, citrusy flavor.
  • Pour the filling onto the cooled crust.
  • Bake the cheesecake for 45-50 minutes, or until the center is set.
