Ingredients
Scale
- 3 1/2 tbsp cream cheese (softened, 52g)
- 1/2 tbsp sour cream (7g)
- 2 tbsp powdered monkfruit sweetener (20g)
- 1 egg (room temperature)
- 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Add the softened cream cheese to a ramekin, mug, or small microwavable bowl.
- Add the sour cream to the ramekin.
- Add the powdered monkfruit sweetener to the ramekin.

- Add the room temperature egg to the mixture.
- Add the vanilla extract to the mixture.
- Whisk once more until all ingredients are just combined.
- Microwave the mixture for 1 minute.
- Check the cheesecake; if the center is still liquid, microwave for an additional 15-30 seconds.
- Continue microwaving in short bursts until the center is no longer liquid and the cheesecake gently pulls away from the side of the ramekin.
- Place the cheesecake in the fridge to cool, or eat it warm.
- Serve with fresh fruit, homemade sugar-free strawberry sauce, or no-sugar-added jam.
Notes
Ensure cream cheese is softened for a smooth batter.
Use powdered sweetener to avoid a gritty texture.
Microwave times vary; start with 1 minute and add time as needed.
For a firmer texture, chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.
