If you like cheesecake, and you like brownies, you will love these Mini Crustless Chocolate Cheesecakes. The combination of (only 6!) ingredients creates what becomes a Brownie Cheesecake!

Indeed, I’m sharing this now so you can make your weekend the best of the best. I’m always here for you. True friends offer recipes so you can make guilt-free Brownie Cheesecake. Oh yeah. Did I not mention you can eat these guilt-free?

Huge Perk: These cheesecakes are super low in sugar and use all real food ingredients.

The main sweetener in this recipe is Stevia (this is my favorite brand). But if you’re not a huge fan of stevia, you’ll love knowing that this recipe also includes a tiny bit of maple syrup. The maple syrup overshadows any of the bitterness stevia sometimes leaves behind. In my experience, the combination of these two sweeteners keeps this recipe very low in sugar but creates a perfect, delicious treat that is perfectly sweet!

You might remember the sister recipe to this one: Easy, Low Sugar Mini Crustless Cheesecakes. I think I like those even better than this chocolate variety, and I think we all know how much I love chocolate. Now I’m thinking that I should make a batch of each, and pour them into the pan together to make a Chocolate Vanilla Cheesecake Combo. Hmmm….put that on your “can’t wait until Laura tells us about that” list.

Make These Cheesecakes EASY!

I always blend the ingredients for these cheesecakes in my Blendtec. It takes about 20 seconds. So easy! Also, I have a Silicone Baking Pan similar to this one that makes baking and cleaning up after these cheesecakes super simple. They pop right out of the pan right after cooling. The pan is BPA free and is very easy to clean!

Peanut Butter Muffins (Naturally Gluten, Grain, and Dairy Free!)

Once there was a girl who hadn’t eaten a sandwich in a very long time. Then she finally found a recipe for bread that met her low carb-high protein needs. So she tried making a sandwich with the special bread, and it worked. It made her very happy because chicken, mayo, and spinach inside a bun are so delicious and normal.

You, too, can be this girl. Check out the fancy sandwich!

Be very impressed, even if you are still among the many who can eat a “real sandwich” with “real bread.” Those of us who are frequently sandwichless feel so excited about this bread-making breakthrough!

For the record, my natural doctor thinks she is getting to the bottom of why my body can’t handle many carbs without experiencing a major crash. It’s still going to take some time to heal my cells and clear out the bad bacteria, but she gives me hope that I will be normal again. Normal is relative, so let’s not even start making jokes about that. I’m very well aware of and heartily embrace my cRaZy.

Aren’t these the prettiest buns you’ve ever seen? (Many jokes. We could make so many jokes about that sentence.)

Hopefully you tried this Peanut Bread Recipe I shared a couple weeks ago. How fun that the batter that recipe creates also bakes into such light, fluffy, golden muffins.

I’m excited to share that my “real bread” eating family loves this bread right along with me. It’s a great way to feed us all protein! My boys really like loading these with butter and honey or jelly. It’s the greatest way to eat PB&J!

This is the peanut butter recipe I use for this bread.

Let me remind you that this recipe is not only for people who have dietary restrictions. I like feeding this to my family because of the high protein content. It’s a great way to start the day, and because it is so filling, it sticks with us the entire morning!

I’m very curious, when’s the last time you ate a sandwich? (I think it had been two years for me…unless you count the lettuce wraps I’ve enjoyed!) If you, too, have been sandwichless, you will so enjoy this recipe!
