Chocolate Cheesecake - healthy style


As you have seen before, I love cheesecake but for some reason lately I have been wanting to try or rather find a cheaters version of cheesecake, just to cut down on some calories I guess. This purely happend through reading and experimenting and finally ending up with a product that is so damn delicious. 

My husband is not a fan of cacao nor does he like chia seeds, I happen to have used both in this recipe and he ate 3 of the 4 cheesecakes that you see in the picture above, so I think it is a winner. :) 

Ingredients: - ( Serves 4) Once again this is a raw recipe so all the products used were certified organic

For the cake 

1/2 Tin coconut cream 
1 TBLS Chia seeds (white or black) 
1 Cup of Coconut Sugar
2 Tsp of cacao powder 

For the base

1 Cup of peanut butter
1 Tsp of cacao powder 

Method: - 

Line a cupcake pan with cupcake tins. Whisk together the coconut cream, chia seeds, coconut sugar and cacao powder until a uniform mixture is formed. Leave it aside and prepare the base. Mix the peanut butter and cacao powder together and take about a tablespoon to press into the cupcake tins to form the base of the "cheesecake". Now pour over the mixture over the base and refrigerate for about 3 hours until the mixture has set. Serve with blueberries and strawberries. A little slice of heaven minus a lot of calories. Enjoy :)
