I like many things in my life and in general I am very positive person, always looking on the bright side of life. However, there is something I really don't like. I don't like to find delicious recipe and as a result of baking having for example 2 egg yolks or 2 egg wights as a leftover. That's why, you probably won't find that in my recipes. I say probably because whenever I said something like "I will never", or "I will always..." I regularly change my mind about it and at the and I do it.
But, this time, you will get delicious keto recipe for a wonderful keto S'mores cheesecake without any leftovers! Egg yolks are used in cheesecake and egg whites are used for low carb meringue topping.
This keto meringue cheesecake with chocolate is great keto dessert and goes perfectly with a cup of coffee. You already know how I like to wake up early on weekends and enjoy my cup of coffee with cake while others are sleeping. Well, this low carb chocolate S'mores cheesecake is perfect for this!
TIPS TO MAKE DELICIOUS KETO S'MORES CHEESECAKE
KETO CHEESECAKE CRUST for this low carb cheesecake is combination of ground almonds and shredded unsweetened coconut with a pinch of salt, low carb sweetener and melted butter. It's actually typical pressed in pie crust that reminds on graham crackers crust. It's great if you bake it for 10 minutes to make it crunchy. If you are more no-bake/raw type you can even skip baking, you can just put it to fridge for 15 minutes before putting cheesecake layer. However, I recommend you to bake. With baking you will get that graham taste and it will be crunchy.
CHEESECAKE LAYER is with cream cheese, heavy whipping cream, egg yolks, vanilla and low carb sweetener. Literally, you just mix it, pour it over the low carb baked crust and bake. There is a secret to nail it - you bake it just until it's firm on the surface and add dark chocolate on top and continue baking until baked, of course.
KETO MERINGUE TOPPING is really easy to make, just beat the egg whites in clean bowl with lemon juice, pinch of salt and keto sweetener. Mixing bowl need to be very clean, not greasy at all in order to get firm meringue peaks. When baked looks like keto marshmallow. And taste reminds on marshmallow too!
