Keto Cheesecake Fluff is a creamy, cloud-like dessert that tastes just like the rich filling of a cheesecake—minus the crust and the carbs. It’s a no-bake, low-carb treat that comes together in minutes and feels indulgent without knocking me off my keto goals.
Ingredients
(Tip: You'll find the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)
8 oz cream cheese, softened
½ cup powdered erythritol or preferred keto-friendly sweetener
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup heavy whipping cream
Optional: fresh berries, sugar-free chocolate chips, or chopped nuts for topping
Directions
I start by beating the softened cream cheese in a large mixing bowl with an electric mixer until it’s smooth and fluffy.
Then, I add the powdered erythritol and vanilla extract and mix again until everything is well combined.
In a separate bowl, I whip the heavy cream until it forms stiff peaks.
I gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture, making sure to keep the texture light and airy.
Once it’s fully combined, I spoon the fluff into individual serving bowls.
I chill it for at least 30 minutes before serving, and if I want to dress it up, I add toppings like fresh berries, chocolate chips, or chopped nuts.

Variations
Sometimes I like to change it up depending on what I have on hand or what I'm craving:
I swirl in a spoonful of unsweetened cocoa powder for a chocolate version.
A drop of almond extract gives it a nice twist.
For a fruity touch, I fold in mashed raspberries or strawberries.
Adding a dash of cinnamon and chopped pecans makes it feel like fall.
I’ve even made it with lemon zest for a refreshing citrus pop.
Storage/Reheating
I store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. It keeps its fluffy texture well and actually tastes even better after sitting for a bit. I don’t recommend freezing it, as the texture changes once thawed. No reheating is necessary—it’s meant to be enjoyed chilled straight from the fridge.
FAQs
What makes this recipe keto?
It’s low in carbs and sugar-free, using erythritol instead of regular sugar. All the ingredients are high-fat and low-carb, perfect for staying in ketosis.
Can I make this ahead of time?
Absolutely. I often make it the night before so it’s chilled and ready to go when I want a treat.
Can I use a different sweetener?
Yes, I sometimes use monk fruit or a stevia blend. As long as it’s a powdered keto-friendly sweetener, it works.
Is it okay to skip the toppings?
Definitely. I often enjoy it plain—it’s delicious all on its own. But toppings can add a fun texture and flavor contrast.
Can I make this dairy-free?
Yes, I can substitute dairy-free cream cheese and use coconut cream instead of heavy whipping cream, but the texture will be slightly different.
