Keto Cheesecake Stuffed Strawberries

Keto Cheesecake Stuffed Strawberries

I love strawberry cheesecake and so does my family! But, sometimes there’s just not enough time to bake. Let’s face it cheesecakes are delicious but time-consuming and sometimes I want something that easier to share. Regardless of my reasons these Keto cheesecake stuffed strawberries are always a crowd pleaser. They are perfect for parties or family get-togethers, even our non-keto friends love them! But you can’t really go wrong with strawberries and cheesecake now can you?

For this recipe, I used a new sweetener. Splenda reached out to me on twitter after seeing our Creme Brulee recipe and offered to send me some samples of their new stevia-based sweetener. If you follow me much then you’re probably aware that I typically hate stevia and generally refuse to use it. However, I also believe that one should be open to trying new things so I agreed to try out their samples but nothing else was discussed. In other word’s Splenda did not sponsor this post in any way! I used their product in this recipe partially as a test (having already been impressed with their packet product in my coffee) and because I was impressed by the lack of aftertaste.

It’s no secret that stevia typically leaves an aftertaste however this blend of stevia and erythritol is surprisingly aftertaste free. At least I couldn’t detect one and my kids/husband didn’t complain about any. If you’re on the fence about stevia and looking for a sweetener that might be easier to find then you might want to give this a try!

Directions

  1. Allow your 8 oz of cream cheese to soften before starting. It’s much easier to mix cream cheese smoothly if you let it come to room temperature before using. If you’re stretched for time, you can also microwave it in 10-15 second intervals until softened.
  2. In a large mixing bowl combine all filling ingredients.
  3. Use a hand mixer to blend until smooth. If you don’t have a hand mixer and have softened your cream cheese like suggested then you can also do this with a fork. A hand mixer is just easier and I’m all about making baking simple!
  4. Cut the green off of your strawberries to create a flat bottom. I suggest doing these in groups of 5-10 to make sure you don’t run out of filling before using all your strawberries (though in my mind extra cut strawberries are fair game as a cooker’s ‘snack’).
  5. Place the now flat side of your strawberry on the plate and cut a cross shape into the tip. Cut close to the bottom of the strawberry but be careful not to cut all the way through. If preferred you can also core the strawberries – I just find the cross shape easier and less time-consuming.
  6. Place your filling in a piping bag with a large tip and pipe it into the middle of your strawberries. If you do not have a piping bag you can also use a plastic baggie with one corner snipped off, it might be a touch messier but it will work!
  7. Sprinkle a touch of crystalized true lemon over the top of your stuffed strawberries for an extra pop.
  8. Set your keto cheesecake stuffed strawberries on a platter and enjoy!

  1. I’ll admit, I’ve never been a fan of cheesecake, but these looks good and who knows I may actually like them. I know my husband would love these, he’s a cheesecake lover. Will have to add these to the list of recipes to try.

      I imagine you can stuff them with pretty much any type of filling so if cheesecake flavors aren’t your thing you could always use buttercream or whipped cream. White chocolate flavored filling would be delicious/

  2. This is such a creative way to make a keto cheesecake, I love it! Strawberries and cream cheese are both soo tasty, this would be the most perfect summery dessert. Thank you for sharing the recipe Kristin, these look delicious! <3 xx

      Thanks! They are pretty amazing for the summer! Strawberries have always been my go-to summer fruit.

  3. These look delicious, and it combines two of my favorite things strawberries, and cheesecakes. I’ll have to give this a try next time strawberries are on sale. Thanks for sharing.

      When strawberries are on sale it’s an all-out strawberry feast around here haha! We can sometimes find entire flats at the farmers market for about $10.

  4. I have been on the Keto diet for the past 3 weeks, and deserts are the one thing I struggled with – so I avoided it thus far, but I am starting to miss it. These look so good! Definitely going to give it a try. Thanks for this.

      Congrats on your Keto Journey! The first few weeks are always the most difficult and missing treats it ones of the big reasons a lot of people give up! Having some easy to make, yummy and keto-friendly desserts on hand is part of the reason I think I was able to make it through!
