EASY STRAWBERRY CHEESECAKE DIP
The warmer months are here and that means outdoor cook outs and barbecues. Less time in the kitchen making desserts is more appealing when you want to enjoy the short season of summer, hence the appeal for no bake keto desserts, which are the best!
When you're on a special diet like being sugar free, low carb, or keto, it's always nice to bring a dessert that you too can enjoy to parties, but also share with others who may not be low carb. This easy dessert pleases them all and everyone will be asking you for the recipe!
CAN I SWAP KETO SWEETENERS USED?
This is perfect for a holiday with family and friends. Make ahead and just keep it in the fridge until you're ready to serve. It's creamy and naturally sweet with the strawberries. Adding just a small amount of berry flavored stevia helps bring it all together. Of course feel free to use whatever sweetener you prefer, just use a small amount then taste and adjust as needed.
One of our newer favorite low carb sweeteners that doesn't leave an aftertaste, is Better than Sugar by Sweetleaf. They have a confectioners powdered sweetener which would be best for this recipe and they also have a granulated option. It's a combination of erythritol and stevia and has plenty of sweetness as sugar would provide.
Swerve confectioners sweetener is also low carb, but doesn't have as much sweetness and you may need to use a bit more to get this as sweet as you like. Allulose would be another option, but again it isn't as sweet as using the Better than Sugar sweetener. Allulose comes in a liquid, and granulated form.
Use my updated Sweetener Conversion chart to look up the different sweetener options and find the right amount to use.
CAN I SWAP THE STRAWBERRIES?
Add as many or as little strawberries as you like. Nutritional information is based on using just 1 cup. If you're strawberries are all ready pretty sweet, skip any sweetener at all. Not a fan of strawberries? Try it with raspberries, blueberries or blackberries!

TOOLS TO MAKE CHEESECAKE DIP
Stand Mixer is the quickest and most efficient mixer to get this easy keto dip mixed up fast!
or Electric Hand Mixer and a large bowl to mix the batter.
Pretty Serving Bowl to showcase this lovely keto dessert to all your family and friends! This ceramic set I linked to not only is pretty enough to serve, but then has a cover to easily store the left overs in the fridge, if you have any left that is!
WHEN DO I USE FOR DIPPING?
Honestly you could just eat this with a spoon but of course, that could lead to overindulging! Here are some options for serving this dip with family and friends. If you are just not in the mood to turn that oven on, try one of these prepackaged cookies for dipping below!
Highkey cookies which come in a variety of different flavors, all keto and gluten free! Kiss my Keto cookies also has a variety of different flavors, but the one I think that would be best for this dip is the vanilla butter! Fat Snax cookies are another great brand of keto cookies and the lemony lemon cookie would be awesome with this dip!
Unfortunately all these keto cookie brands mentioned are made with almond flour so if you have someone with a nut allergy in the family, then don't buy them, just make my nut free cookies instead. My Keto Vanilla Wafers would be the perfect option or even my Keto Nut Free Chocolate Chip Cookies. My kids could not get enough of this luscious, creamy dip. In fact they even liked it better than my Cookies & Cream Dip, I was shocked!

I didn’t think it was very sweet and mine was on the runny side. I was disappointed, but served it anyways after doctoring it up with jello.
Brenda
Sounds like you didn't taste it after adding the strawberries. Since there isn't anything to make you sick, tasting it before letting it set in fridge is always recommended then you can decide if it's sweet enough for you. Also if it was runny, that was probably from not whipping the cream enough after adding the fresh strawberries. More heavy cream could also have been whipped in to thicken it.
Gloria J Johnson
Make sure you use good cream cheese, not store brand. And oh, the salt, too much. I don't think the recipe needs it. Mine was too salty. I need to sweeten it up!
Khristine
How long does this last in the fridge and can it be frozen?
Brenda
I've never frozen it, but it will be good in the fridge for at least 5 days.
Desert Farms UK
This looks so nourishing and satisfying!
Dee Dee
This is delicious. I used monkfruit as the sweetener and added diet strawberry jello powder to add extra zing to the strawberry flavorDee
Claudinia
How much is in a package of cream cheese? I'm not in the US and cream cheese packaging is not standardised here.
Brenda
226 grams
Raluca
can you use it as a filling for a chocolate cake?
Brenda
Yes and that sounds fantastic!
Lori
I used raspberries and dipped strawberries in it! Yum
Lisentume
Can I use a sugar free preserves with this instead of atrawberries?
Brenda
I'm sure you could though I've not tried it but it sounds like a good idea.
Kelley
Are we supposed to beat the cream cheese and the heavy whipping cream until it turns into a whip cream texture because mine was very runny. I’m hoping that it thickens up in the refrigerator overnight.
Brenda
Just as mentioned in the directions, yes all together. It will thicken in the fridge.
Holly
what is the serving size amount 1/2c or 1 cup, 1/4cup.. i know portions make all the difference when you are adding this into macros
Cheri
I know this is an old recipe, but I was just looking more closely at it and am wondering if the stevia is liquid or powdered? It makes a difference. Also, I always buy my cream cheese in the 8 oz size, but recipes usually specify. Is it 8 or 4 oz?
Brenda
It's 8 ounce package and it's liquid stevia, I believe the stevia is linked to the berry flavored I used.
Margie
This dip is every bit of deliciousness described. Easy to make easy to eat.
Brenda
Thank you!
Sheppe
Alternatively, make the dip without the strawberries... and just use plain stevia (Trader Joe's has a great pure Stevia powder) if you can't find, or don't want to purchase berry flavored... then dip the strawberries.. Perfect summer dessert!
Tania
That’s an excellent suggestion!
Alexis
Hi, this looks delicious, but do you think a bit of sugar-free koolaid mix combined with water ahead of time would work in place of berry flavored stevia? I'd hate to buy a bottle of it and never use it up. I find that it's expensive. Thanks!
Brenda
I'm not sure since I've not tried it but it sounds like it could work for you.
Marla
I was thinking about making some of the cinnamon pork rinds (butter, cinnamon, sweetner melted; toss plain pork rinds in it and chill in fridge) to dip with.
Pandalana
What kind of sweetner?
Marla
whichever you prefer. I generally use Swerve.
Paula
What is being dipped in this dip? It sounds great I want to make it this weekend!
Brenda
We used fresh fruit for my kids but if you're looking for something like a cookie, these are great: https://www.sugarfreemom.com/recipes/sugar-free-grain-free-vanilla-wafers/

My question exactly...to keep this low carb, what are you dipping?

Juli Varvarezis
Would would you suggest serving with this? Personally, I'm all for digging in with a spoon, but in case I don't feel like looking weird in front of my family... 😀
Kelly
I was wondering the same thing. I occasionally turn low carb tortillas into chips by brushing them with coconut or olive oil and cutting into wedges or crack shapes, then baking for a bit until golden on both sides, but I know some people don't like to eat those. The ones I use most often (Mission brand flour tortillas) have a hint of sweet flavor to them on their own, but you could also make them a little sweeter by sprinkling them with a bit of cinnamon/sweeterner mix.
