Recipe Summary:

Cook Time: 1 hour
Total Time: 1 hour 15 minutes
Servings: 12 slices
Skill Level: Intermediate

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups almond flour
• 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1/4 cup powdered erythritol
• 1/4 cup melted butter
• 24 oz. cream cheese, at room temperature
• 1 cup powdered erythritol
• 4 large eggs
• 1/2 cup sour cream
• 1/4 cup heavy cream
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 cup fresh raspberries
• 2 tbsp powdered erythritol (for raspberry swirl)

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Line the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan with parchment paper.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, cocoa powder, powdered erythritol, and melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom of the springform pan to form the crust. Bake for 10 minutes and let cool.
3. In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and 1 cup powdered erythritol until smooth and creamy.
4. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the sour cream, heavy cream, and vanilla extract until fully combined.
5. Pour the cheesecake batter over the cooled crust.
6. In a blender, puree the raspberries with 2 tbsp powdered erythritol. Strain to remove seeds if desired.
7. Dollop the raspberry puree over the cheesecake batter. Use a knife or skewer to swirl the raspberry puree into the batter, creating a beautiful swirl pattern.
8. Bake for about 50-60 minutes, or until the center is just set and the top is lightly golden.
9. Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside with the oven door slightly open for an hour. This helps prevent cracks.
10. Remove from the oven and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight before serving.

Helpful Tips

• Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature before mixing to avoid lumps in the cheesecake batter.
• If you’re new to making swirls, practice on a small portion before working on the entire cheesecake.
• Use a water bath to bake the cheesecake if you want to ensure an especially smooth top without cracks.
• You can substitute the fresh raspberries with frozen if needed. Thaw and drain any excess liquid first.

Storage Instructions

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. This cheesecake can also be frozen for up to a month. Thaw in the refrigerator before serving.

Pairings

This cheesecake pairs wonderfully with fresh berries on the side and a dollop of whipped cream. For a refreshing beverage, consider serving it with a hot cup of green tea or a chilled sparkling water with a twist of lemon.
