Brownie Cheesecake combines gluten-free brownies and low carb cheesecake into one delicious sugar-free dessert recipe. My famous low carb cheesecake recipe gets a shiny update, with new photos and a how-to recipe tutorial video. This is the best keto cheesecake you will ever eat. Two delicious sugar-free desserts in one!
I used to joke to my husband that America’s Test Kitchen should put out a cookbook titled “12 Tablespoons of Butter”. We have several of their cookbooks and we also get Cook’s Illustrated, and I’ve often been struck by the fact that many of their recipes take 12 tablespoons of butter. I’ve always loved my butter, but this liberal use of it in their recipes used to horrify me slightly.
This was back in my non-diabetic, non-low carb days, when I bought into the idea that I must use saturated fats judiciously and make do with “healthier” fats like olive oil. Now that I’ve seen the error of my ways, I feel free to use butter as liberally as the folks at America’s Test Kitchen. Perhaps more so, because I now see butter as a healthy part of my daily diet. It adds flavour and makes dishes more satisfying. Maybe I am the one who should put out a cookbook called 12 Tablespoons of Butter! (Hey, that’s not a bad idea….what do you think?).
How to Make Low Carb Brownie Cheesecake
It certainly doesn’t hurt the cause that 10 bricks of Kerrygold butter found their way to my doorstep the a few weeks ago. Hello, lovely friends, won’t you come in and make yourselves at home…in my belly? Seriously, Kerrygold butter is so good. I can happily eat it as is, like a slice of cheese. In fact, I did that very thing at Camp Blogaway last year, when Kerrygold was there showcasing their delicious products. I do believe someone caught me in the act on film. Great. My obsession with good butter caught on camera for the world to see. Ah well, there could be worse things. There is no shame in loving grass-fed butter. This butter makes this brownie cheesecake recipe spectacular.
The only problem with receiving a big package of Kerrygold was what to make first? I asked around on my Facebook page and received so many good suggestions, and I had so many ideas of my own, I was virtually paralyzed with indecision. And then there’s the fact that it’s such good stuff, I almost want to hoard it and not make anything at all, for fear of using it all up and having no more. I finally had to just break through and make something, anything, to get my creative, butter-y juices flowing again. I decided to make a treat I’d set my sights on long ago, a delicious creamy keto brownie cheesecake. Kerrygold butter in a low carb brownie base for cheesecake. How could I possibly go wrong?
Low Carb Brownie Cheesecake Recipe UPDATE:
Since I first posted this grain-free brownie cheesecake recipe in 2013, it’s easily become one of the most popular low carb recipes on my blog. Possibly the most popular low carb brownie cheesecake EVER! It’s a hit with everyone who tries it. I haven’t changed the recipe at all, I’ve simply taken new photos and created a how to video. Also, if you want to make a little chocolate sauce to pour over (as I always do!), try making a small batch (1/2 or 1/3) of my best Low Carb Chocolate Sauce. So dreamy.
