Ingredients
Method
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 320°F (160°C) and line a 9x9-inch square pan with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, sweetener, cocoa powder, and a pinch of salt.
- Add melted butter and vanilla extract, mixing until the texture resembles sandy goodness.
- Press the crust into the bottom of the prepared pan and bake for 15 minutes.
Chilling the Base
- While the crust cools, whisk together the gelatin powder and 1/4 cup of heavy cream in a separate bowl and set it aside.
- In a saucepan over medium-low heat, combine the remaining heavy cream, sweetener, cocoa powder, and salt, stirring gently for about 5 minutes until bubbling.
- Remove from heat, incorporate the vanilla extract and gelatin mixture, and allow it to cool. Transfer to the fridge for at least 30 minutes.
Making the Filling
- Blend cream cheese and sweetener until smooth.
- Slowly add the cream, mixing until the filling is fluffy.
- Spread the cheesecake layer over the cooled crust and chill again.
Topping the Dessert
- Whip the cream with sweetener and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
- Spread the chocolate pudding layer over the cheesecake, and finish with whipped cream.
Setting
- Refrigerate for another hour to set before serving.
Notes
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to five days. The flavors deepen as it sits, making it even better the next day.
