Ingredients

Base

  • 2 cups almond flour
  • 1 tblspn grated fresh ginger
  • 1 tspn ground ginger
  • 1 tblspn ethyritol or sugar subsitute
  • ¼ cup butter melted

Filling

  • ¾ cup cream cheese softened at room temperature
  • ¼ cup erythritol or sugar subsitute
  • cup 125ml single cream
  • 2 tblspn cocoa powder
  • 3 tblspn dark rum
  • 75 g dark chocolate

Instructions

  • Mix the base ingredients together until they form a breadcrumb-like mixture.
  • Line a muffin tin with cling film in six individual tins and ensure that the edges overlap. This helps you remove the cheesecake once firm.
  • Place about ¼ cup of the nut mixture into the muffin tin and spread out along the bottom and the sides, until you have a case.
  • Place in the fridge to firm whilst you make the filling.
  • Melt the chocolate in a bain marie (or bowl over a saucepan of simmering water).
  • Remove and slightly cool.
  • Beat the cream cheese, cream, erythritol and cocoa powder together until blended.
  • Add the rum and stir until combined.
  • Remove the cases from the fridge and spoon the mixture into the individual cases.
  • Place in the fridge and allow to firm for at least 2 hours. You can always leave them over night too.
  • Once firm, remove the individual cheesecakes from the tin by gently lifting the edges of the clingfilm.
  • Eat and enjoy!
