Keto Key Lime Cheesecake for 2

Recipes makes 2 servings.

Ingredients:

For the crust:
¼ cup almond meal
2 tsp coconut oil, melted
2 tsp ground flax seeds
1 tsp chia seeds
For the filling:
2 oz (113g) cream cheese, softened
¼ cup heavy whipping cream
¼ cup unsweetened almond milk
2 scoops HLTH Code Vanilla
1 Tbsp key lime juice
A few drops of green food coloring (optional)


Instructions:

Add the minced almonds, coconut oil, ground flax seeds, and chia seeds to a food processor. Process until completely combined.

Divide the mixture evenly into the bottom of two small serving glasses, pressing it down to form the crust. Place the glasses in the refrigerator while you prepare the filling.

In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth and creamy.

In a separate small bowl, mix the HLTH Code Vanilla with almond milk until well combined. Add this mixture to the cream cheese and mix well.

Beat the heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture to prepare the filling.

Finally, mix in the key lime juice. If desired, add a few drops of green food coloring to achieve the desired color.

Take the glasses with the prepared crust from the refrigerator. Divide the creamy filling evenly between the two glasses, spreading it over the crust.

Place the glasses back in the refrigerator and let the cheesecakes chill for at least 2 hours, or until they are set.

Before serving, you can garnish with a slice of key lime or a sprinkle of additional minced almonds for added texture.
