I've combined dairy and Jello before when I made my yummy Yogurt Jello Bites. That recipe uses Greek yogurt – this time I've used cream cheese. These cheesecake bars are ideal for low carb snacks or dessert, and you can also vary them easily by using different flavors of Jello!
How to Make Low Carb Raspberry Cheesecake Bars
Make the base by combining almond flour and melted butter, then press it into a 8″ square baking pan (lined with a silicone mat or baking parchment – if using parchment leave an overhang for easy removal!).
Bake the base in a preheated oven for 8-10 minutes or until the almonds start to turn darker brown. Leave to cool, keeping the base in the pan.
In a stand mixer bowl, combine sugar-free raspberry jello with boiling water. Mix at a low speed until the granules have been incorporated into the water. Add softened cream cheese and beat until fully combined. Pour the raspberry mixture over the cooled almond base, and place in the fridge to set.
Melt some low carb chocolate (I used ChocZero 70%, but Lily's would work well too) and drizzle it over the top.
Let the chocolate set, then cut it into 16 squares. Add half a fresh raspberry to each square to garnish.

Omg!! This was so good! I used Strawberry Sugar Free Jello (already had). I added 2tbsp of Golden Monk Fruit to the crust and made them in the cupcake tin. I did add 2 splashes of heavy whipping cream and 1 tsp. more of the Jello (I had the bigger box of Jello)

Do you know if coconut flour would work with this in place of almond flour?

I've not tried it, but they're not usually interchangeable because the coconut flour is more absorbent, which makes the final product drier.

I made them but added a half cup of heavy whipping cream and 3 tsp of Monkfruit sweetener. I also used a low carb chocolate syrup bc I didn’t have the chocolate to drizzle. They came out delicious! Thanks for the inspiration. Your blog has awesome recipes.
