Ingredients

For the Crust:

  • 1/3 cup (26.5 g) Perfect Keto Cinnamon Cereal, crushed (or alternative keto-friendly crust substitute)

For the Filling:

  • 2½ ounces (70.9 g) cream cheese, softened
  • 5 tablespoons powdered Swerve Sweetener, divided
  • 2½ tablespoons key lime juice
  • 1/4 cup (59.5 g) heavy whipping cream
  • Natural green food coloring (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Crust:

    • Crush the cereal into coarse crumbs using a baggie with a rolling pin or a food processor.
    • Divide the crumbs between two small dessert cups or jars, pressing them down to form the crust.
  2. Make the Filling:

    • In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth.
    • Add 1/4 cup of powdered sweetener and mix until well combined.
    • Stir in the key lime juice and adjust sweetness with the remaining sweetener, if needed.
    • If using, add a few drops of natural green food coloring for a light green hue.
  3. Whip the Cream:

    • In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
    • Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined.
  4. Assemble & Chill:

    • Spoon or pipe the cheesecake filling over the prepared crusts in the dessert cups or jars.
    • Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set.
  5. Serve & Enjoy:

    • Optionally, top with whipped cream and freshly grated key lime zest before serving.
