Keto Chocolate Chip Cookie Cheesecake Bars

Instructions

Crust:

• Preheat oven to 325F and grease a 9-inch square pan well.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, shredded coconut, sweetener, baking powder, and salt.
• Add the egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract and beat until the dough comes together. Stir in the chocolate chips.
• Press about two-thirds of the dough into the bottom of the prepared pan. Bake 10 to 12 minutes, until just browning around the egdes, then remove from the oven and let cool (it will not be fully baked at this point).

Filling:

• In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add the powdered sweetener and beat until well combined. Beat in the egg and vanilla, then thin out with the heavy cream, beating until smooth.
• Pour the filling over the cooled crust. Take the remaining cookie crust mixture and crumble over the top of the filling, pressing lightly to adhere.
• Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until the top crust is golden and the filling is just a little jiggly in the center. Remove from the oven and let cool, then refrigerate for 1 hour until set.
