Hello, friends!  Happy Monday to you!  I have something to share that will be sure to sweeten your day, but in a sugar-free kinda way! 😉

New recipe!  Sorry for the cheesy rhyme, but I can’t help it – after all, these little buggers ARE quite cheesy – in a delicious cheesecake sort of way, that is!  

Not only are they mini & creamy, but they’re made with only 6 healthy ingredients.  Did I mention that they’re sugar-free & low-carb/ketogenic friendly?  Grain-free too!!

As if the above wasn’t enough to sell you, how about the fact that the base of these creamy mini no-bake cheesecakes is made of chocolate and peanut butter goodness?  Can you say yum?!
