Ingredients
  

For the crust:
  • 2 cups almond flour
  • cup unsalted butter, melted
  • cup erythritol or monk fruit sweetener
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
For the filling:
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup powdered erythritol
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract

Equipment

  • 1 Mixing bowls
  • 1 Electric hand mixer or stand mixer
  • 1 Measuring cups and spoons
  • 1 Baking pan (9x9 inch)
  • 1 Spatula
  • 1 Parchment Paper

Method
 

  1. Make the crust: In a bowl, combine almond flour, melted butter, sweetener and vanilla extract until crumbly. Press the mix down into a lined 9x9 inch baking pan and you have your crust.
  2. Make the filling: Using an electric mixer, beat softened cream cheese until smooth. Mix in the eggs, sweetener, melted butter and vanilla. Beat until the filling is smooth and has no lumps.
  3. Make the cake: Pour the cream cheese mixture over the crust, and spread it out with a spatula so that it covers the entire bottom evenly.
  4. Bake: Bake in a preheated 350"°F (175°C) oven. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until edges are golden and the middle looks a little gooey but not raw.
  5. Cool, serve: Allow the cake to cool for 15 minutes before slicing and serving. Serve warm, or refrigerate for a thicker and cooler texture.

Notes

  • Powdered sweetener will result in a less grainy filling.
  • It shouldn’t be overbaked; the center will still be a little gooey.
  • Parchment your pan for easy removal.
  • Cool and then slice for neat pieces.
  • Sprinkle sugar-free powdered sweetener for a "bakery" look if desired.
