Cheesecake Brownie (Almond Flour)

Sharing is caring!

A keto cheesecake brownie that combines two desserts in one.  A delicious low carb and gluten free brownie topped with cheesecake and baked.

 This is just delicious!  I had been thinking about this recipe and toyed with the idea of doing this in individual muffin form, but then went for the one tray option.   I have not ruled out the muffin version though and will do that another lazy weekend.   

The Chief Taster was beside himself with joy whilst this was baking and I had to hold him off whilst it was cooling.   It is delicious once cooled, but better a day later, as the brownie is a touch more moist.  Delicious either way.  This is a great brownie recipe too, if you wanted to skip the cheesecake topping….

I made a vanilla and chocolate swirl with the cheesecake topping but you could play around with the flavours if you so wished.   Oooh, Bailey’s if you are feeling wicked..  Or simple have a delicious vanilla cheesecake.     Or top with some berries.   Or added cream.  Oh dear, just feel full thinking about it!   So many possibilities of deliciousness!
