Chocolate Protein Cheesecake with Almond Crust
Baked chocolate cheesecake with almond flour and cocoa, finished with a dusting of cocoa for a rich, bittersweet bite.
INGREDIENTS
0.3 cup Almond Flour
1.2 cups Low-fat Cottage Cheese
0.5 scoop Chocolate Whey Protein
0.25 cup Liquid Egg Whites
2 tbsp Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
1 tsp Coconut Oil
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
1 tbsp Monk Fruit Sweetener
PREPARATION
Preheat oven to 325°F and lightly grease a small 4-inch springform pan.
In a small bowl, combine the almond flour, half of the cocoa powder, and melted coconut oil until it forms a sandy dough.
Firmly press the almond mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan to create an even crust.
Place the cottage cheese, protein powder, egg whites, remaining cocoa powder, monk fruit, and vanilla in a high-speed blender.
Process the mixture until it is completely smooth and no curds remain from the cottage cheese.
Pour the chocolate filling over the crust and tap the pan on the counter to release any air bubbles.
Bake for 30 to 35 minutes until the edges are set but the center remains slightly wobbly.
Allow the cheesecake to cool completely at room temperature before transferring it to the refrigerator.
Chill for at least 4 hours to allow the texture to firm up and the flavors to meld.
