[Updated] This recipe is more of a recipe redo or makeover. A long time ago I made a low carb no bake cheesecake that has become very popular on the interwebz. Since then I’ve been working on my photography and wanted to remake it so I could take new pictures. Well that got me to thinking.
I decided to try to bring the carb count down as well. The original recipe is very good but also very filling. So I did some tweaking and came up with a new and improved raspberry keto no bake cheesecake that I think you will like.
Let’s Make Some
No Bake Keto Cheesecake!
- First add the nuts, cinnamon and a bit Swerve sweetener in the food processor until it starts to get sticky. Take it out of the food processor and press into the bottom of the jars. Note I used 6oz jelly jars but you can use whatever you want.
- Next whip the cream cheese and Swerve sweetener. Then add in the whipped cream and vanilla. Whip until nice and creamy then spoon into the jars. Set them in the refrigerator while you make the raspberry sauce.
- To make the raspberry sauce, add the raspberries and a couple tablespoons of water to a small sauce pan. Simmer until the berry sauce forms. Use a fork to mash the berries. When it’s done, set aside to cool then add in the Torani sugar free raspberry syrup.
- Once the syrup cools, spoon over the cheesecake layer. Keep the cheesecakes in the refrigerator until ready to eat.
How I Lowered The Carb Count
- First thing I did to lower the carb count was use just raspberries. Raspberries are one of the lowest carb fruits. Berries in general are very low in carbs and also one of the best fruits for you to eat. They have so many antioxidants and plenty of fiber and they come in such beautiful, vibrant colors.
- The second thing I did was to divide this recipe into 6 portions. I usually get two servings out of these because the cream cheese filling is …well so very filling. 😉
- And I tweaked the cream cheese filling to have a bit less cream cheese and a bit more whipped cream. That way you can whip it up nice and fluffy.
- Lastly I used half walnuts and pecans which are lower carb nuts. All of these little tweaks brought the carb count down from 12.7 net carbs to 5.8 net carbs.
About The Sugar Free Syrups
A note about the syrup. I used Torani sugar free raspberry syrup. I don’t know if you have ever used these syrups but they are fantastic. You can find them at coffee houses, Amazon or sometimes Walmart. They have a huge variety of flavors (regular and sugar free) on their website so I just buy mine there.
Right now I have over 20 bottles. They last forever and you can use them in coffee, tea, alcoholic drinks, smoothies, baked goods, ice cream and many more recipes. I have over 40 recipes using Torani sugar free syrups.

Tiffany Stratton
I’m going to make this today. Question, if I don’t use a crust and just throw a few raspberries in what would you say the net carbs would be?
Thank you for this delicious sounding recipe!
I’m on day 10 of keto and have already lost 12 pounds. Amazing.
Denise
Hi Tiffany, I’m not really sure but I’m guessing it would be similar in net carbs but maybe even lower? There are a few carbs in both the nuts and the raspberries so they may even out.
And good for you for the weight loss. That’s awesome!
Cindy
Hi!
Just wondering if this is considered Gluten-free??
Thanks
Denise
Hi Cindy, I would say it was. There are only nuts in the crust. Hope that helps!
Julie
Where is all the fiber coming from? I know nuts has some but I only get 10 grams from nuts? This tastes amazing! I’ve already made it twice this week!
Denise
Hi Julie, the high carb and fiber counts come from the Swerve sweetener which cancels each other out. I just took it out of the nutritional account because it doesn’t really add anything (carbs nor calories) to the recipe. Hope that makes sense.
Rebecca
This cheesecake is crazy amounts of delicious. Whoa!
Denise
Hi Rebecca, So glad you liked it!
Renee
My filling is very runny. What did I do wrong? I whipped it in my mixer for a long time trying to get it to stiffen but it’s not working.
Denise
Hi Renee,
I’m not sure. Did you use the cream cheese? That in itself should make it thick. Also if the whip cream is warm it might not whip up enough. That’s about all I can think of. You can also use less cream if you want. Sorry it didn’t work out for you. Please let me know if you have any other questions.
Rebecca
I always whip my cream separate from the cream cheese and then fold it in and mix it. If you put it in with the cream cheese, it may not fully stiffen up.
Denise
Hi Rebecca, thanks for sharing your tips!
Lora
Can this be put in freezer it’s so good but way too much for me to consume in a short period
Denise
Hi Lora, you can store it in the refrigerator for sure. Not to sure about the freezer though. Hope that helps.
Denise
You might want to cut the recipe in half. Now that I think about it, it might be fine if it’s frozen. You would have to let it thaw in the refrigerator over night or something.
Chris
I love this recipe. I have changed up the flavor a few times to lemon or almond with great success. Thank you so much. This is my go to dessert and everyone loves it.
Denise
Hi Chris,
So glad you liked it! I’ll have the try the almond sometime. Thanks for taking the time to comment. I appreciate it!
Kat
Do you use the confectioners swerve?
Denise
Hi Kat,
Yes I use the confectioners for almost everything. I read somewhere that you can just grind the regular Swerve to make the confectioners but I have not tried it yet. Hope that helps!
Isa
I read the comments first and forgot this one. Definitely using confectioners next time. There was a little grit using the regular sweetener but still so good. It really was delicious. So much so that my teen who hates Keto desserts has her own when she tried mine. That was a shocker!! Also I just used fresh raspberries only for the layers.
Denise
Hi Isa, I’ll go amend the recipe to include confectioner’s sugar. This is a rather old recipe and I have been using Swerve confectioners a lot. It does seem to work better. Thanks for taking the time to come back and comment!
Annie
I’ve made this dessert often….even for my non-low carb friends and family. EVERYONE loves it!!! My brother, who has a sweet tooth, requests it whenever we have dinner together.
Denise
Aw thanks Annie… you made my day! So glad you all like it!
Mary Brown
I tried this recipe using low fat cream cheese and it was excellent! It didn’t add any extra carbs. It’s my new go to summer dessert. Thank you for sharing!
Denise
Thanks so much for coming back to comment and I’m glad it worked out so well!
Mary Brown
Hi Denise,
Can I use a no fat cream cheese? How would that affect the final product? Thanks, looking forward to trying this dessert!
Denise
Hi Mary,
I don’t see why not as it’s not being baked or anything. However I have never done that because sometimes fat free products have more carbs in them than full fat. I hope it works out well for you!
Annette
I’ve made these twice and I love them! I do not cook the raspberries, only mash them and add stevia. This is my favorite keto dessert, thanks for posting!
Denise
Thanks for commenting Annette. I’ll have to try that next time!
Rion
6 oz of cream cheese? It comes in packs of 8. Is the number above correct? Just want to make sure it’s not 16oz
Denise
Hi Rion, yes 6oz is correct. I was trying to make it as low carb as possible. I’m sure you could use 8oz if you don’t want to waste the extra 2 oz. But no that is not a mistake. I hope you enjoy it!
VHM1
Made this today. Confess I don’t really understand the per serving nutrition info here – seems on the high side when I enter it into my nutrition counter.
Anyway, I made 4 servings in ramekins. I used 1 C total nuts (walnuts/pecans), 4 oz of 1/3 reduced fat cream cheese, just shy of 1 C cream, about 1 C berries (blackberries and raspberries), no syrup in the berries (a squeeze of lemon juice instead) and then altered the sweetener and other ingredients accordingly.
Very delicious.
Denise
I rechecked my calculations and got the same numbers. I know different apps have different information so it’s hard to have decisive nutritional information. I use the Loseit app for all my recipes. Anyway, most of the carbs come from the raspberries and a bit from the dairy. Thanks for commenting and letting me know about your version and I’m glad you like it!
Patty
I also use lose it app can’t wait to try this
Denise
Hi Patty,
So glad you use Lose It too! i love that app.
And I hope you enjoy it. I use the basic cheesecake mixture for lots of recipes so you can mix it up if you want for different flavors.
Daniel
How many carbs per serving would you say there is? Thanks!
Denise
Hi Daniel, it’s 514 cal / 51.8g fat / 32.1g carbs / 26.4g fiber / 6.7g protein = 5.7 net carbs per serving. Hope that helps!
Paula
Can you make this as one large serving? Would an 8×8 baking dish work? Wanting to make it for a party but can’t do individual servings.
Denise
Hi Paula,
I can’t see any reason why that wouldn’t work. Please let me know if you do and how it worked out!
Andi D
What size ramekins or mason jars should I use? The jars they are in now look huge and I want to make sure I get the right ones. Thank you!
Denise
Hi Andi, I’m not sure but I think they were 8oz jars. They were leftover jelly jars that some one had given me homemade jam in. One jar is very filling and you would probably only need to eat half to be satisfied so you might be able to make more in small jars even. Hope that helps!
Kathy
51.8 g. of fat per serving is very high for a healthy snack. Perhaps one half low fat graham cracker crushed, some milled flaxseed, with a bit of coconut oil for the crust would take this number down. The strong favor of the raspberries are sufficient, rendering the nuts an unnecessary evil this time. The rest sounds amazing so thank you for sharing.
Denise
Yes it is high in fat but those following a low carb or keto plan are more concerned with carbohydrates. However lots of people are not low carb and would appreciate your suggestions so thank you for commenting!
Cheryl
I totally agree that the nut crust is not a necessity
Denise
Thanks for sharing Cheryl!
Barbara
This looks so yummy…Must try!
Denise
I hope you like it Barbara! Please let me know if you have any questions.
Kimbo
Can you freeze when made? Thanks Kim
Denise
Kim, I am not sure how the cheesecake mixture would hold up but since you wouldn’t be reheating it, it might just work. Please let me know if you do and how it came out. Thanks for stopping by!
CJ
This sounds SUPERB! Was there a carb amount somewhere that I missed? I can not wait to make this, thank you for sharing with us!
CJ
LOL…I just found the carb count! TY =) am anxious to try it!
Denise
Hi CJ, I hope you like it. Please don’t hesitate to ask questions if you have them!
Joanne Hinman
I can’t find the carb count either.
Denise
Here you go Joanne. It’s right about the recipe.
514 cal / 51.8g fat / 32.1g carbs / 26.4g fiber / 6.7g protein = 5.7 net carbs
Kristen
Denise, I wasn’t craving cheesecake–BUT now I am! This looks so yum!
Denise
Thanks Kristen! I really liked it.
