Keto Chocolate Chip Mini Cheesecake Recipe
I’ve been making Keto Cheesecake Muffins since we first started following a ketogenic diet last year. They are so easy to make and always turn out delicious. Because I love to experiment with recipes, I thought I’d try changing it up a bit and make Keto Chocolate Chip Cheesecake Muffins. First, I added chopped pecans as a crust before I added the cheesecake filling to the cupcake liners. Then, to add a little extra sweetness to the savory pecans, I added Lily’s Chocolate Chips to the batter. There was just something about adding that salty and sweet combination to an already delicious sweet treat that took it over the edge. I always like to keep things simple, so instead of adding a bunch of ingredients to the crust I just scooped in a tablespoon of chopped pecans and once the batter cooked it tasted like a crust. One thing I try to be intentional about in my recipes is that they are easy without a lot of complicated steps or ingredients.

How to make Keto Chocolate Chip Mini Cheesecake Recipe
I’ve included a couple of process photos below of the Keto Chocolate Chip Cheesecake Muffins if you are a visual person.
Lily’s sugarfree chocolate chips are amazing!
Parchment muffin liners are my new favorite find! Nothing sticks to them, which means easy cleanup and you don’t lose half of your muffin in the liner. Line 12 muffin tins.
The pecans cook into the batter forming the easiest most delicious crunchy crust.
Yummm! These are so amazing. The salty pecans with the cheesecake and chocolate chips combined are simply delicious.
