Keto Sex In A Pan



I'm always on the look out for keto recipes that don't give off keto vibes, if you know what I mean. A lot of time low carb/gluten free recipes just aren't spectacular. For me it's generally a texture thing. 
Anyway, our Keto Nanaimo Bars (Recipe HERE) have pretty much been the peak of gluten free desserts for me to this point and I really wanted to try and convert our "normal" Sex In A Pan (Recipe HERE) dessert to keto because it's the peak of "normal" desserts when I'm not doing keto. 
Long story short.... this recipe is a hit. 
You'd never know it was keto/gluten free. It's a bit fussy to make because there are 4 layers but it's totally worth it. The portions are big (always a plus) and the net carbs are impressive - only 3.7 net carbs per serving, recipe makes 12 servings! (303 calories, 28.3 fat, 6.3 carbs, 2.6 fiber, 5 protein - keep in mind it is always best to enter your own brands/weights into a nutritional calculator to be exact.)

Keto Sex In A Pan

Ingredients
Crust
1 1/4 cup almond flour
1/3 cup unsweetened baking cocoa powder
1/4 cup powdered Swerve
pinch salt
1/4 cup butter, melted
1 Tbsp water

Cheesecake Layer
8 oz cream cheese, room temp
1/4 cup whipping cream
1/4 cup powdered Swerve
1/2 tsp vanilla

Pudding Layer
1 cup whipping cream
1 cup unsweetened almond milk
1/2 cup powdered Swerve
4 egg yolks
1/2 tsp xanthan gum 
1/3 cup unsweetened baking cocoa powder
3 Tbsp butter, cut up
1/2 tsp vanilla

Whip Cream Layer
1 1/2 cups whipping cream
2 Tbsp powdered Swerve
1/2 tsp vanilla

Chocolate Sprinkles
1 oz (approx 2 Tbsp) sugar free chocolate (I use Lily's chocolate chips)

Directions
Prepare crust - Preheat oven to 325. Lightly spray the bottom of a 10 inch pan with cooking spray (OR, I used 6 X 5 inch individual mini pie pans) 
Mix almond flour, cocoa powder, Swerve, and salt together in a bowl. Stir in the melted butter and water until well combined. Spread evenly into prepared pan(s) and press down firmly. 


Bake at 325 for about 10 - 15 minutes. 10 minutes in the individual pans or 15 in one large pan. 
FYI - If you are using smaller pans it helps to place them on a cookie sheet for easier transportation. 
After the crusts have baked, remove them from the oven and place them into the fridge or freezer while you prepare the next layer. 
Prepare cheesecake layer - In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until it is lump free, scraping sides as needed. In another bowl, beat the whipping cream, Swerve, and vanilla until stiff peaks form.
Slowly beat the whipping cream mixture into the cream cheese, until smooth. 
Spread evenly over the crust layer. 


Place in fridge or freezer while you prepare the pudding layer. 
Prepare pudding layer - In a saucepan bring whipping cream, almond milk, and Swerve to a simmer over medium heat. 
Whisk the egg yolks in a bowl and slowly whisk in the cream/milk to temper the eggs. Return everything to the saucepan and place back over medium-low heat. Sprinkle with the xanthan gum and whisk in. Whisk in the cocoa powder. Stir fairly vigorously over the medium-low heat until thickened. 
Once thickened, remove from heat and whisk in butter and vanilla. Stir until smooth. Set aside and let cool. (You can set in the freezer and stir every 15 minutes to speed the process.)
Once it reaches room temperature, spread evenly over the cheesecake layer. 


Chill until cool and set, about 2 hours. 
Prepare whip cream layer - Beat together whip cream, Swerve, and vanilla until stiff peaks form. Divide and spread evenly over the pudding layer.


Prepare chocolate sprinkle - Pulse 1 oz (approx 2 Tbsp) of chocolate in a blender or food processor until fine. Sprinkle evenly over the whipped cream layer. 


Chill until ready to serve. Can be made a day ahead of time. 


FYI - You want to keep it covered. 


The recipe makes 12 servings. Generous servings, if I do say so! 
This keto Sex In A Pan is rich, creamy, low carb, gluten free, and super de duper delicious. 


The crust has a hint of almond flour taste but I find by the third bite I'm tasting more chocolate and it's all good. Texture is pretty much spot on to our original Sex in a Pan, maybe a bit creamier, but I'm not complaining about that!. 
FYI - This will last a few days, covered, in the fridge. 
Feel like you are missing out by following keto or gluten free? You won't with this decadent dessert. It's got all the bells and whistles!
