Keto No Bake Cheesecake Brownies
Oh my word my friends! I just made the most delicious easy no bake dessert that will blow your mind!
My cheesecake brownies are gluten free, sugar free, egg free and you can make them dairy free if needed! Plus they are packed with protein!
HOW TO MAKE KETO NO-BAKE CHEESECAKE BROWNIES
To make my no-bake cheesecake brownies, I used Equip Prime Protein! The vanilla protein keeps the np-bake cheesecake layer together so do not skip this ingredient or you will have a runny cheesecake layer! The Equip also gives the cheesecake layer a delicious flavor!
Some of you know that I pack Equip Prime Protein powder in my carry on when I travel! I am in LOVE with it! But at the airport when I was on my way to speak in Baltimore, the security thought my little ziplock with powder in it looked “fishy.” So they had to test it! lol!
Equip Prime Protein powder is an all-natural, comes from 100% grass-fed beef protein powder. No fillers, no additives, no chemicals and it is so delicious! It works perfect for making my no-bake cheesecake brownies!

Keto No Bake Cheesecake Brownies
Ingredients
BROWNIE LAYER:
- 1 ounce unsweetened baking chocolate
- 6 tablespoons butter or butter flavored coconut oil
- 3 tablespoons powdered natural sweetener (I used allulose and 1/2 teaspoon stevia glycerite)
- 1 scoop Chocolate Equip Protein Powder
CHEESECAKE LAYER:
- 16 ounces cream cheese softened (or kite hill cream cheese for dairy free)
- 6 tablespoons powdered natural sweetener (I used allulose and 1 teaspoon stevia glycerite)
- 6 scoops Vanilla Equip Protein Powder
Instructions
- To make the brownie layer, place the chopped chocolate and butter into a medium bowl. Heat in the microwave at 20 second increments and stirring in between until the chocolate is completely melted.
- Add the sweetener and prime protein. Use a hand mixer to combine until smooth. Taste and adjust sweetness to your liking. Pour into a parchment lined 8 by 8 inch casserole dish. Set in the fridge while you make the cheesecake swirl.
- Place the cream cheese, sweetener, protein powder and vanilla in a large bowl and use a hand mixer to combine until smooth. Taste and adjust sweetness to your liking.
- Pour over the brownie layer and use a knife to make swirls into the brownie layer.
- Place in fridge for 4 hours to set. Cut into 24 squares. Store extras in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 7 days.

TESTIMONY OF THE DAY
“I found Maria many years ago when I completed The 30 Day Ketogenic Cleanse. Little did I know I was preparing for my daughter. Back in August she started to complain about stomach pains, which I blamed on being nervous of the new school year. Fast forward to the end of September and it was blatantly obvious there was something wrong.
As a former failure to thrive infant, I was grateful she was growing, even though I knew she was overweight. After several rounds of blood work, ultra sounds, x-rays and specialists (which we are still seeing to make sure she doesn’t have anything autoimmune), she was diagnosed with a severely inflamed liver and fatty liver. After reading on the disease, I realized that going dairy free, and “clean” keto/low carb, would be her best bet.
So, we’ve been making Maria’s recipes from her Sugar-free cookbook and she’s down almost 20lbs and feeling a 10000000% better (the before photo was taken 3 months ago). She was almost into a girls 14/16, but is now a size 8/10. Our new way of eating has made her feel so much better than she now packs her lunch for school and helps me plan our meals for the week.
I’m so thankful to have found Maria many years ago! She will quickly tell you we aren’t on a diet, we just have a new way of eating so our bellies don’t hurt anymore.
Thank you so much.
Have a blessed day!” Stacey
I have just made this and the printed recipe doesn’t quite match up the the video (which I watched after….)
I am worried, the recipe says one scoop of chocolate, and that didn’t seem right but I did it anyway.
Also, I don’t. have vanilla equip, but used PB for the cream cheese mixture, I think that will be good!
I doubled the recipe 🙏
Oops, I saw that you doubled the recipe, I was using the 1x version! Sorry 🙂
No worries 🙂
The testimony of that lovely little girl is awesome! I was wondering if you can use the Besti Allulose/Monk Fruit sweetener or should it be just the Allulose? If the combined one would work would you skip the stevia glycerite or use less? Thanks so much for your recipes! I may make this for my upcoming birthday and hoping hubby got me the meat press for one of my gift requests! So wanting to make the gyro meat and chicken chips!
Feel free to use whichever sweetener you prefer 🙂
Will this recipe work with a different brand of protein, if we don’t have or can’t get the equip protein?
I have only tested this recipe using Equip Prime Protein. I cannot speak for the results using different ingredients 🙂
Can you sub cocoa powder for the baking chocolate, and if so, how much? Also, can you freeze these once they are all set and cut into squares?
It won’t turn out the same. Baking chocolate is much more concentrated than cocoa powder.
Can you use ricotta cheese, instead of crème cheese? It’s extremely difficult to find clean crème cheese.
Sorry, I haven’t tried that 🙏
Hi Maria,
Can you sun the equip for protein powder and add more cocoa and vanilla?. It’s very hard and expensive to get that in my country.
The cream cheese didn’t set. It’s more like frosting. I used collagen protein instead of the stated brand in the recipe and might just need to use a different amount but I dont think Im going to get around to experimenting to find out. Any one else try to substitute with a different protein powder and did you have to use more?
Sorry, I have only used Equip Prime Protein for this recipe so I can’t speak for how it will come out with alternative ingredients 🙂
ok…so now I am understanding the massive confusion. Your video does not match up with the recipe. In your video, for the brownie part, it matches the first part of the recipe as if you are making it x2. However, when you get to the cheese cake part, you are only making the recipe x1. That is super confusing.
And on both the brownie and cheese cake part, it calls for either 6 or 12 tablespoons of allulose, but when you are putting it in the recipe, it looks like there is a full cup of allulose.
now I am not sure how to follow this recipe to make it come out right…..
When in doubt always follow the written recipe 🙂
Ok. I made the recipe the exact way you did in the video demo. But the brownie part was not smooth….it was hard and clumpy. I put it in the fridge like you did while I made the cheese cake part. So when I poured the cheese part, it would not swirl as the brownie part was clumpy right away. What did I do wrong?
Sorry, not sure 🙏
Delicious! I used only 2 tbs of sweetener. It set perfectly after sitting in fridge.
Hi Maria
Do you eat these deserts you post?Just curious as i never see you sample
Thank you!

I eat a dessert every day 🙂
Hi, Maria! I made this recipe yesterday and it was to die for!! I used a different protein powder, as I didn’t have any equip and it worked perfectly! My husband and I LOVE it! It hits the sweet spot perfectly, without the guilt. 🙂 One question, can you share what hand mixer you’re using? I know it’s Cuisinart, but which model? I tried finding a Cuisinart here, but they were just three speeds/lightweight. Is that normal? lol
I’m so glad you love it! https://mariamindbodyhealth.com/hand-mixer/
