Keto Mini Cheesecake Brownies
These Keto mini cheesecake brownies are soft, moist, and very easy to make. They come together in 4 simple steps and require minimal easy-to-source ingredients. They are also incredibly easy to make and require very little preparation. With their irresistible flavor and convenient size, Keto mini cheesecake brownies are an excellent dessert option for any Keto dessert lover.
Are brownies Keto?
Traditional brownies are not considered Keto-friendly because they typically contain a high amount of sugar and flour, both of which are high in carbohydrates. However, many Keto-friendly brownie recipes use alternative ingredients, such as almond flour, coconut flour, and sugar substitutes, to reduce the carb content and make them suitable for a Keto diet. These Low-Carb brownies are usually higher in fat and protein than traditional brownies, and they use ingredients that are lower in carbs and higher in fiber, making them a better option for those following a Keto diet.
How to store these Keto cheesecake brownies?
To store these mini brownies, allow let them to cool completely to room temperature. Once cooled, transfer the brownies to an airtight container and place them in the fridge. They can last for up to 5 days when stored properly. Before eating, allow them to come to room temperature or microwave them for a few seconds to restore their soft and chewy texture. You can also sprinkle some powdered sweetener or cocoa powder on top for added flavor.
Are there any serving suggestions for these mini brownies?
Yes. Serve them with a scoop of sugar-free vanilla ice cream for a decadent and indulgent treat. You can also crumble them over some Greek yogurt or whipped cream and top them with fresh berries or nuts for added texture and flavor. For a more festive presentation, dust some powdered sweetener or cocoa powder on top or decorate with some sugar-free chocolate chips.

So good! I add a little bit of shredded coconut and a little less sweetener, and Lillys chocolate chips (sugar free). Excellent recipe!

After reading all the reviews, I decided to make regular sized cupcakes and baked them for 20 mins. The confection sugar seemed really high so I reduced both some (by sight). I added some espresso (1/2 teaspoon) and black cocoa powder (1 Tablespoon) and a pinch of salt. The result was excellent! Going to make without the cupcake liners next time, too much good muffin stuck to the paper (every crumb matters)! 😂 Topped with homemade keto whip cream! Yum!

Easy and delicious. We did regular size muffin tin vs mini and baked 20 minutes. Additionally, we added three whole pecans to each, as my husband loves nuts in his baked goods.

I substituted the cocoa powder for melted 100% cocoa. Delicious!!

Took 15 min for me to bake and used cacao powder instead. Tasted ok but just cannot escape the aftertaste of artificial sweetener. Tasted wonderful with some keto ice cream though!

Pretty good, really small. I wouldn’t describe them as delicious, but I liked them. I baked them for about 10 minutes. I didn’t sprinkle with the powdered sugar at the end.

Although couldn’t figure out cooking times they’re really tasty but shrank like a soufflé when I took them out after 14 minutes but put them back in for another 7min, look dreadful but taste is lovely
Jeannie 4 years ago

Can you use granulated swerve??
SuperRadish366577 4 years ago
If you blend granules you should get a powdered variety.

I literally just made these for the first time. I couldn't even wait for them to cool completely. They are soooo yummy! I didn't have dark cocoa powder so just used regular. They taste like a warm soft brownie with a hint of nuts, obviously the almond flour sneaking through. They were plenty sweet for me but when you haven't had any sweets for awhile the bit of sweetness these have bursts through. I will definitely make these again, thank you!

Way too bitter. I love dark chocolate but I couldn’t get past the strong bitter after flavor.
Nena67 4 years ago
This recipe is OK. They are a bit bitter as there is too much cocoa powder. I made 12 muffins and they are still small, so the 24 would be the one bite. I made a glaze from xylitol and cream and drizzled on top to make them a bit more sweeter.

These were amazing! Very rich in flavor. Definitely curbed my chocolate craving. Will make again.

Very good but mine didn’t crack open and I left them in 2 minutes longer than suggested. I was afraid they would be too dry if I they went any longer. I also had enough batter for 29. I will make them again

I am usually confused when it comes to using Swerve. For this recipe, is it the granular or confectioners that is used?
Kelly 4 years ago
When it says “ultimate icing“ it means powdered sugar because that’s what you use to make icing and that’s exactly what it says on the front of the package well. Took me awhile to figure it out as well until I actually saw the package.

Easy to make and delicious ! If you love a rich chocolate flavor and a moist cupcake you will love these ❤️

I just made these for the first time - YUM! Has anyone had success with freezing them? I always make double batches when I am in the mood to bake/cook so I have some for a long time, so I am hoping they freeze well.

Did anyone else have a lot left over after the mini tin was filled? I made 3 bigger cupcakes for the hubby. Delish! I don't think I'll 3gen need to add the confectioners!

I made another cupcake (about 1oz) with the leftover!

Very “mealy”....put me more in the mind of a cornbread. I wonder if a finer flour will make a difference....also need a bit more sweetener for my taste...

I always sift my flour with the other dry ingredients. It helps alot.
St_cie 5 years ago
I had forgotten to add the second batch of sugar so mine didn’t come out right but I can imagine that adding the sugar to the second mixture will add more sweetness to it. For my first try, it’s just more dark chocolate tasting, a bit bitter but that’s dark chocolate for you. Adding sugar on top of them definitely helps that they taste better. Will try again.

I made these this morning. They were absolutely disgusting! Wow i am shocked with the reviews. This recipe does not taste like brownies. Hated it. Will never make it again
dhudgins 5 years ago
They are delicious!!! Tastes just like a regular brownie & the confectioners sugar on top is the perfect amount of sweet added to it!!
