Mocha Latte Keto Coffee Cheesecake Bites
If you’re looking for a to-die-for keto cheesecake bite recipe and you love coffee, this is the recipe for you!
What Are Keto Cheesecake Bites?
Cheesecake is our family’s favorite, so needless to say, these keto cheesecake bites are well-loved and highly requested! Keto cheesecake bites are low-carb and high-fat, and not all that different from your regular cheesecake. These are in smaller, bite-sized pieces, so they’re already portioned out for you.
Are Cheesecake Bites Keto-friendly?
Not all cheesecake bites are keto-friendly, but this recipe is! I use a granulated Stevia instead of sugar, and the crust makes use of finely shredded coconut and almond flour instead of carb-heavy grahams. These ingredient swaps ensure that you can indulge in this dessert guilt-free!
How to Make Keto Cheesecake Bites Crust
A good cheesecake wouldn’t be complete without a banging crust, so that’s what we’re going to do today.
- Line your pan. For easy transfer later on, line your baking pan with parchment paper. You could also use butter or cooking spray to grease your pan, but I prefer lining it with paper.
- Combine the dry ingredients in a bowl. Combine the butter, sweetener, coconut, cocoa powder and almond flour in a bowl.
- Transfer and flatten on pan. Make sure to spread your dough evenly.
- Refrigerate. At least 30 minutes in the fridge is recommended.
How to Make Coffee Keto Cheesecake Bites
Now that you have a solid crust, it’s time to focus on the cheesecake. I love this coffee-flavored base because it’s incredibly tasty without being too sweet.
- Dissolve the gelatin. Dissolve the gelatin in hot coffee and then set aside to cool.
- Beat the cream cheese and sweetener. Add the coffee and gelatin and combine.
- Add the cream. Whip until thick and everything is well incorporated.
- Pour. Pour the cheesecake mixture over the refrigerated crust.
- Drizzle with chocolate. Refrigerate to set the chocolate.
- Cut. Measure out the desired size of your cheesecake bites.
Can Cheesecake Bites Be Frozen?
Yes! These cheesecake bites are great even when frozen. Since they have very little water content, it freezes well and doesn’t get soggy when defrosted.
TIP: Arrange the cheesecake bites spaced apart on a baking sheet. Once they are frozen, pry them off the baking sheet then store them in a container. Freezing them spaced apart will allow you to store the pieces without them sticking together.
How Long Do Coffee Cheesecake Bites Last in the Fridge?
For best results, I would keep these cheesecake bites no longer than 5-7 days in the fridge. They are best enjoyed after a day or two, otherwise just freeze them to extend their shelf life.

I made these yesterday and they turned out great. My only deviation from the recipe is that I added vanilla extract to both the crust and the filling. For the sugar, I used granulated erythritol — couldn’t find the granulated stevia.
They weren’t too sweet — just enough to satisfy — but they were rich, so a little piece went a long way.
Would definitely make these again!
