New York style cheesecake is one of my many weaknesses, so a keto New York style cheesecake is an amazing thing to have for me.

This Keto New York style cheesecake has always been a hit with my family, and I usually get a few requests a year to make it for some of them.

It can take a bit for chilling the cake, so usually if this is needed for after dinner I make sure I get started on it earlier in the day. If you need it for the next day then that is perfect timing for letting everything chill in the fridge overnight.

Now I don’t really care for super sweet, so if you like sweeter things you might want to up the amount of sweetener you use for the cheesecake itself.

Keto New York Style Cheesecake Recipe

This was inspired from New York Strawberry Cheesecake from New York Keto. One of the main things that I modified in this cheesecake recipe is the crust, because the original was way too thick for me. I also used golden monk fruit to give the crust more of a graham crakery taste.

I do more low carb than hardcore keto so I did do a strawberry topping, that was just frozen strawberries with a couple of tablespoons of monk fruit sweetener. Usually, just strawberries are sweet enough for me so I didn’t feel the need to go all out on adding sweetness to them.

But it doesn’t require any toppings, it is delicious without.

Or if you would like something other than strawberries you can swap out as you would like.

The nutrition info is without the topping, so be sure to add in any topping if you are keeping track of calories and/or carbs.
