Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin pan with paper liners.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- Add the melted baker’s chocolate and heavy whipping cream to the cream cheese mixture. Continue mixing until the filling is smooth and airy.
- Spoon the cheesecake filling onto the cooled crusts, distributing it evenly among the muffin cups.
- Bake the cheesecakes for 15-18 minutes, or until they are set. Remove from the oven and let them cool completely.
- For the Melted Dark Chocolate Topping: Melt the sugar-free dark chocolate chips and coconut oil together, stirring until smooth.
- Dip the tops of the cheesecakes into the melted chocolate and sprinkle a pinch of sea salt on each.
- Allow the chocolate to cool and set, and then you’re ready to enjoy your Keto Salted Dark Chocolate Cheesecakes with a delightful twist!
