Can I Make Cheesecake Fluff Without an Electric Mixer?
You can definitely make cheesecake fluff without an electric mixer. While an electric mixer will admittedly make your life a lot easier when making this recipe, it’s far from required.
You can just use a whisk to whip your cheesecake fluff together by hand in a pinch; it will take a bit more elbow grease than an electric mixer but it will still get the job done just fine.
Is Cheesecake Fluff Healthier Than Regular Cheesecake?
Answering whether or not cheesecake fluff is healthier than regular cheesecake isn’t exactly a black-or-white, yes-or-no type of question.
You can find unhealthy versions of both cheesecake fluff and cheesecake quite easily. Likewise, you can just as easily find keto-friendly versions of both desserts that are indeed both delicious and nutritious.
In general though, cheesecake fluff tends to be a bit healthier than traditional cheesecakes because it’s super easy to make them gluten-free and sugar-free, using nothing but real, whole food ingredients. Cheesecake fluff also tends to be lower in both calories and carbs because there’s no crust to go with it. It’s really just a delicious, light and fluffy filling!

Easy to make but not exactly sweet as sugar. I whipped a little extra cream, then added it to make the fluff a little less dense. I guess it became more like a think pudding. I used Stevia as the recipe called for. Who out there knows what I can use that’s more like sugar in taste. I think Stevia has a bitter aftertaste.
I used Swerve Brown (because i didn’t have a granulated white sweetener). Swerve makes different sweetener blends out of erythritol, allulose, and monkfruit.
I use monkfruit powder, but I’ve hear that allulose is really good.
