Ingredients

• 1 cup Almond flour
• 2 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 3 tablespoons Erythritol sweetener
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
• 16 ounces Cream cheese (softened)
• 1 cup Peanut butter (natural, no sugar added)
• 1 cup Powdered erythritol
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 cup Sugar-free chocolate chips
• 1 tablespoon Coconut oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8 inch pan with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, mix almond flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, and erythritol sweetener until combined.

Step 3

Add melted butter to the dry mixture and stir until it forms a crumbly yet cohesive texture.

Step 4

Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan to form a base. Bake for 8-10 minutes, then let cool slightly.

Step 5

In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, peanut butter, powdered erythritol, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.

Step 6

Add the eggs one at a time, mixing until just incorporated. Avoid overmixing.

Step 7

Pour the peanut butter cheesecake mixture over the cooled base, spreading it evenly.

Step 8

Bake for 30 minutes or until the center is just set and slightly jiggly. Remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature.

Step 9

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the sugar-free chocolate chips and coconut oil in 30-second increments, stirring until smooth.

Step 10

Pour the melted chocolate evenly over the cooled cheesecake layer. Use an offset spatula to spread it out smoothly.

Step 11

Refrigerate the pan for at least 3 hours or until fully set.

Step 12

Once chilled, remove the cheesecake from the pan using the parchment paper. Cut into 16 squares for serving.

Step 13

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
