This Adorable Mini Red Velvet Cheesecake is Perfect For Valentine’s with your Sweetie! It’s Low Carb, Gluten Free, Grain Free, and Perfectly portioned ! Thank you to Sweetleaf Stevia for Sponsoring this Post!
It’s almost Valentine’s day and that means some sweets for the sweet one in your life! If you’ve got kids like me, it also may mean some sweets for them as well as your spouse.
I prefer making mini cakes so portion control is a little bit easier for me and there won’t be a delicious cake in my fridge all week staring me down and tempting me with it’s deliciousness.
Mini cakes are in and if you’ve not tried a mini cake yet, this is the best one to start with! It easy and it makes enough for 4 servings or share with just one and split the cake in half. It’s low in calories and carbs so it really won’t be an overindulgence if you decide to keep it all for yourself!
Chocolate sauce is optional but oh so perfect for a little extra special Valentine’s.
Decadent, Delicious, but simple enough for a weeknight Valentine’s treat.

Mini Red Velvet Cheesecake
Ingredients
- 8 oz cream cheese softened
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tsp SweetLeaf Liquid Stevia Chocolate Sweet Drops
- pinch of salt
- natural red food coloring
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/3 cup sour cream
Optional Chocolate Sauce
- 3 oz sugar-free chocolate chips, melted with 2 Tbsp. butter
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
-
In a stand mixer, combine the cream cheese, eggs, vanilla, salt, food coloring, and SweetLeaf® Liquid Stevia Chocolate Sweet Drops™. Blend on high until smooth and well incorporated. Add in the remaining ingredients and blend on high until smooth.
-
Grease a 6-inch springform pan. Wrap the bottom of the pan with aluminum foil to form a seal, and place the pan into an 8-by-8-inch dish. Pour water into the dish until it’s halfway up the sides of the springform pan. Pour the cheesecake batter into the springform pan and bake for 45 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes.
-
Remove from the water bath and refrigerate 4-6 hours or overnight.
-
When ready to serve, melt the optional chocolate and butter together for 1 minute in the microwave. Mix until smooth and pour over cheesecake, if desired.
Recipe Notes
- The sugars in the Nutrition Facts are from the natural lactose in cream cheese and sour cream.
- If you are used to very sweet cheesecakes, adjust your batter as needed before adding eggs. Simply mix the cream cheese and SweetLeaf® Liquid Stevia Chocolate Sweet Drops™, then taste to decide on the sweetness.
- If you don’t have SweetLeaf® Liquid Stevia Chocolate Sweet Drops™, you’ll find SweetLeaf®Vanilla Crème Sweet Drops™ will be just as delicious. You can also use a tablespoon or two of SweetLeaf® Stevia Sweetener in the shaker jar.
- The optional chocolate sauce is not included in the nutrition information.

Why is it so difficult to find the recipe? I just want to read it on my computer – not on instagram or any of that other stuff. I scroll thru so much junk and still don’t have the recipe.
“Scroll through so much junk ?” Hard to find?

You can’t please all of the people all of the time. Sad sad sad. …..recipe looks great, I’ll try it. .but need to buy a mini pan first! Thank you!
🙂
Thanks will try but there are quite a lot of adverts flashing up if viewing on iPhone as I do so I did have to scroll through about 4 screens worth to get to the recipe. Maybe put at the top and the bottom perhaps? Or on the blog itself so users don’t have to click off page?
Brenda and Lisa I think both of your responses are very rude!
This page is full of ads which makes it frustrating and puts many people off to the point they close out your blog and go to one that has a clear recipe without all the pop ups!
Which is exactly what I’m doing!
This is perfect for Valentine’s Day! It looks so decadent especially with that chocolate on top!
Thanks Maya!
Can’t wait to try this Cheesecake! Have really enjoyed getting these newsletters.
Thank you!
I have smaller springform pans with diameter of 4″. If I divide the recipe into two smaller pans how much do you think I should reduce the cooking time by?
I would reduce the time by half.
Thanks!
