How to Make Sugar Free Cheesecake Brownies
Ingredients
For the brownies you need eggs, butter, sour cream, vanilla extract, low carb sweetener, instant espresso powder, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking powder, salt and sugar free chocolate chips.
For the cheesecake topping, you need cream cheese, egg, low carb sweetener, vanilla extract and an optional topping of sugar free chocolate or chips.
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
In a stand mixer, add the first 5 ingredients and blend on high until combined well.
In another bowl whisk together the next 5 dry ingredients.
Pour this into the wet ingredients and blend on high until combined.
Gently stir in the chocolate chips.
Grease an 8 by 8 baking dish.
Pour half the brownie batter into the pan. Set aside remaining batter.
Prepare the cheesecake topping using a stand or hand held mixer to blend until smooth.
Pour half the cheesecake topping onto the brownie batter in the pan.
Pour the remaining brownie batter over the the cheesecake topping.
Finish with remaining cheesecake topping.
Use a butterknife to swirl the batter and cheesecake topping together.
Decorate with optional chocolate bar chunks or chips if desired before baking.
Bake 30-35 minutes until toothpick in center comes out clean.
Allow to cool for 15-20 minutes before slicing.
Can these Cheesecake Brownies be made Dairy Free?
Yes you can make these cheesecake brownies dairy free. First swap out the butter in the brownie batter with coconut oil. Swap out the sour cream with coconut yogurt or canned coconut milk.
For the cheesecake topping, you could just skip the cheesecake topping as the brownies are equally as good on their own. But if you still want that cheesecake topping, swap out the cream cheese with a vegan cream cheese substitute.
