A creamy, low carb vanilla cheesecake with delicious swirls of sugar-free Nutella, perfect for a guilt-free dessert.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/4 cup hazelnut meal
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup Swerve Sweetener
- 3 tbsp butter, melted
- 3 packages cream cheese (24 ounces), softened
- 1/2 cup powdered Swerve Sweetener
- 1/2 cup granulated Swerve Sweetener
- 3 large eggs, room temperature
- 1/3 cup heavy cream, room temperature
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup homemade sugar-free Nutella OR Nuti-Light
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325F. In the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan, combine hazelnut meal, cocoa powder, and sweetener. Stir in melted butter until well combined. Press crumb mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of the pan.
- Bake for 10 minutes, then remove from oven and let cool while working on the filling.
- Reduce oven temperature to 300F.
- In a large bowl, beat cream cheese with sweetener until well combined. Beat in eggs, one at a time, scraping down sides of the bowl and beaters as needed.
- Beat in heavy cream and vanilla until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Brush the sides of the pan with melted butter or spray with coconut oil spray.
- Pour half the cheesecake batter over the cooled crust and drizzle with half of the Nutella. Swirl with a knife. Repeat with remaining batter and remaining Nutella.
- Bake cheesecake for about 1 hour and 20 minutes to 1 hour and 30 minutes, until filling is mostly set but just jiggles slightly in the center.
- Remove from oven and let cool completely in the pan. Run a sharp knife around the edge and release the sides. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours.
