Ingredients

Scale

Cookie Dough Layer:

  • 2 cups almond flour
  • 8 tbsp butter, softened
  • 2 oz cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup low-carb sweetener (or preferred sweetener*)
  • 1 tsp molasses (optional, for flavor)
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tsp coconut flour
  • ½ cup sugar-free chocolate chips

Cheesecake Layer:

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • ½ cup low-carb sweetener
  • ¼ cup sour cream
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsp gelatin

Chocolate Ganache:

  • 4 oz unsweetened baking chocolate, chopped
  • 4 oz heavy cream
  • 6 tbsp low-carb sweetener

Instructions

1. Prepare the Cookie Dough (5 min)

  • In a bowl, mix almond flour, butter, cream cheese, sweetener, molasses (if using), vanilla, and coconut flour until smooth.
  • Fold in chocolate chips.
  • Press evenly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan.

2. Make the Cheesecake Layer (10 min)

  • In a food processor, blend cream cheese and cottage cheese until smooth.
  • Add sour cream, sweetener, and vanilla; blend again.
  • While blending, slowly sprinkle in gelatin to avoid clumps.
  • Spread mixture over the cookie dough layer.

3. Prepare the Ganache (5 min)

  • Heat heavy cream until bubbly (microwave or stovetop).
  • Pour over chopped chocolate, stir until melted.
  • Add sweetener and blend in a food processor for 1-2 minutes until thick and shiny.
  • Pour over cheesecake and spread gently.

4. Chill & Serve (4-6 hours)

  • Refrigerate for at least 4-6 hours (overnight is best).
  • Before serving, run a knife around the edges and release the springform pan.
  • Slice carefully—the cookie dough is softer than a traditional crust.

Notes

  • Sweetener Substitutions: Adjust based on sweetness (see original recipe notes).
  • Molasses is optional—adds depth but minimal carbs.
  • Storage: Keep refrigerated for up to 5 days or freeze for longer storage.
