Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin pan with paper liners.
2. For the Almond-Chocolate Crust: In a mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, almond meal, unsweetened cocoa powder, and powdered erythritol. Mix until it forms a dough-like consistency.
3. Press the crust mixture into the bottom of each muffin liner, creating a crust. Pre-bake for about 7 minutes, then allow them to cool completely.
4. For the Dark Chocolate Cheesecake Filling: In a stand mixer or with a hand mixer, blend the cream cheese, eggs, powdered erythritol, unsweetened cocoa powder, vanilla extract, and kosher salt until just combined.
5. Add the melted baker’s chocolate and heavy whipping cream to the cream cheese mixture. Continue mixing until the filling is smooth and airy.
6. Spoon the cheesecake filling onto the cooled crusts, distributing it evenly among the muffin cups.
7. Bake the cheesecakes for 15-18 minutes, or until they are set. Remove from the oven and let them cool completely.
8. For the Melted Dark Chocolate Topping: Melt the sugar-free dark chocolate chips and coconut oil together, stirring until smooth.
9. Dip the tops of the cheesecakes into the melted chocolate and sprinkle a pinch of sea salt on each.
10. Allow the chocolate to cool and set, and then you’re ready to enjoy your Keto Salted Dark Chocolate Cheesecakes with a delightful twist!
