Peanut Butter Cheesecake Parfait
Sugar free, Low carb and delicious
You are probably getting the idea by now that I prefer my food sugar free and either low carb, or healthy carb / low fat. In other words no sugar fats and carbs are separate. =) That means finding all new recipes to replace my favorite foods especially desserts. Well we tried one tonight and I think it is a real winner, so I just had to share it right away!
Sorry it is not the best picture, but after the first bite I knew it was a winner and I would want to share it, so I snapped a quick pic so that I could finish eating it. =) |
It came about because my husband was eating cheesecake and we wanted some too, but all we had was frozen cream cheese. I figured if I started blending it we could come up with something good and oh boy did we.
Ingredients
- 1 package frozen cream cheese
- 1t of peanut flour
- 1 handful of almonds
- Sweetener to taste (I used about 1t of xylitol and 4-5 shakes of NuStevia)
- Dash of vanilla
- 1T cream
No peanut flour? Don't worry, just try adding a little peanut butter and omitting some or all of the cream. =)
I would say this is somewhere between cheesecake and ice cream.
If you eat THM style this would be a heavy S dessert. =)

Deletethis sounds just about perfect, and I learned something! I didn't realize you could freeze cream cheese. What a great thing, because I buy it from Costco and can't always manage to use it all before it goes bad!
ReplyDeleteGlad to be of help. =) When I freeze it, I find it works best for things like cheesecake and desserts like this. The texture after freezing is not the best for spreading on a sandwich or cracker. =)
