02 - 1/3 cup powdered erythritol
03 - 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
04 - Pinch of salt

05 - 1 cup unsweetened cold brew coffee
06 - 8 oz cream cheese, softened
07 - 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
08 - 1/3 cup powdered erythritol
09 - 1 tbsp gelatin powder

11 - 1 tsp vanilla extract

→ Topping

12 - 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
13 - 1 tbsp powdered erythritol
14 - Coffee beans or cocoa powder for garnish (optional)

# Step-by-Step Directions:

01 - Preheat oven to 350°F. In a bowl, combine almond flour, powdered erythritol, melted butter, and salt. Mix until well combined and press firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish.
02 - Bake the crust for 8-10 minutes until lightly golden. Remove from oven and let cool completely before filling.
03 - Sprinkle gelatin powder over cold water in a small bowl. Let stand for 5 minutes to bloom. Microwave for 10-15 seconds until melted and liquid.
04 - Beat softened cream cheese with powdered erythritol in a large bowl until smooth and creamy. Add cold brew coffee and vanilla extract, mixing until fully incorporated.
05 - Whip 1/2 cup heavy cream to stiff peaks. Gently fold whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until no white streaks remain.
06 - Stir melted gelatin into the filling until fully incorporated. Pour filling into the cooled crust and smooth the top with an offset spatula.
07 - Refrigerate for at least 2 hours until the filling is completely set and firm to the touch.
08 - Whip remaining 1/2 cup heavy cream with 1 tbsp powdered erythritol to stiff peaks. Spread or pipe over the chilled pie surface.
09 - Garnish with whole coffee beans or dust with cocoa powder if desired. Serve chilled and store refrigerated.

# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • You get that coffee shop intensity without spiking your blood sugar
  • The texture is somewhere between mousse and cheesecake but somehow lighter than both
  • Your keto friends will actually look forward to dessert again instead of politely declining
02 -
  • If your cream cheese isnt fully softened, you will get lumps that no amount of mixing can fix
  • Gelatin needs to be completely melted or youll find weird rubbery bits in your slice
  • The pie needs those full two hours to set or cutting it becomes a messy disaster
03 -
  • Use a pie dish with a removable bottom for the prettiest slices
  • Dip your knife in hot water and wipe it clean between slices for picture perfect pieces
