Is Regular Cheesecake Keto?
No, most regular cheesecakes are not low in carbs enough and include added sugar, to be considered keto friendly.
What restaurants serve low carb cheesecake?
I only know of one low carb cheesecake made at the Cheesecake Factory. Though their cheesecake is low carb, it is made with artificial sugar substitutes and our cheesecake recipes are always made with natural, low carb sweetener that won't spike blood sugar.
Can I make this Cheesecake Dairy Free?
Yes you can make this cheesecake dairy free by swapping the butter with vegan butter and the cream cheese with a dairy free alternative. swap the heavy cream with canned coconut cream.
Can I make this coffee cheesecake without coffee?
You could make this cheesecake without the coffee but you would also need to replace the liquid amount of coffee with something else. It might just be easier for you to use one of my many other
Can I Change Low Carb Sweeteners?
Yes you can use any sugar free sweetener you prefer. To swap the granulated Swerve sweetener, I'd suggest Monk Fruit granulated for the pie crust.
To swap the vanilla liquid stevia in the filling, I do not recommend granulated sweetener. Please use a liquid low carb sweetener or a confectioners sweetener that is low carb. Here is my fool proof Sweetener Guide & Conversion Chart.

HypoHelen
Sugar free?? When the chocolate contains Demerara sugar?
Brenda
No there is not any sugar in the chocolate it is made with stevia.
Terri
What can I use instead of gelatin? I do not have it. I live in a small town and even when I went to Lincoln I couldn't find grass fed gelatin.
Brenda
You may be able to use another thickener like xanthan but gelatin works best.
Aura Deleon
I made this recipe, preparing first the coffee extract and the results were superb! Thank you!!

Hi, I love coffee but my husband doesn’t though he will eat chocolate/coffee ice cream occasionally . I did not have the coffee extract but I figured that would be OK since he’s not a big coffee person. I don’t think it had the right flavor without it after all so I used a little vanilla extract and a little coconut extract. Still didn’t like the flavor so I added cocoa powder to the cheesecake itself. I know this adds more carbs but I wanted him to eat it. Are used liquid Monk fruit liquid Stevia and a tiny bit of powdered lankanto as he still has a sweet tooth. Came out great. Usually I don’t adjust your recipes that much. I have to say I will be using the crust part of this recipe a lot! Do you have a recipe that uses the same ingredients but in a cookie form?
Ashley Matecki
Looks great! Could I substitute pecans for the sunflower seeds and still achieve the desired consistency for the crust?
Brenda
Yes that would work.
