Ingredients:
- ½ cup almond meal
- ¼ cup butter, melted
- 16 ounces cream cheese, softened
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon lemon juice
- ¾ cup artificial sweetener such as erythritol, xylitol, or Splenda
- ½ teaspoon salt
Preparation:
- Thoroughly spray a 12-cup muffin pan or line with paper cupcake liners (lightly spray the inside of these). In a bowl, mix together the almond meal and the melted butter until fully incorporated. Spoon the mixture into the bottom of the muffin pan/cup liners and press into a flat crust.
- Beat the rest of the ingredients together at medium speed until smooth, about 3-5 minutes.
- Spoon the mixture into each muffin cup, packing it down with the spoon or your fingers until you are out of cream cheese mix and each cup is most of the way full.
- Put the pan in the freezer and allow the cheesecakes to freeze for at least 2 hours. Remove from the freezer and pop the cheesecakes out onto a serving platter or a storage container while still frozen. Note: If you are not using the paper cupcake liners, you may need to go around the edge of the cheesecakes in the muffin pan with an offset spatula or butter knife to get them to pop out of the pan.
- Allow the cheesecakes to thaw in the refrigerator for about 3-4 hours before serving.
