Happy Happy Monday y’all! I am always on the hunt for desserts that are as equally delicious as they are healthy, because as I might have mentioned before, I love food #foodieproblems. Seriously, when it’s not a cheat day and all you want is a slice of something delicious, a piece of fruit (though delicious) is just not gonna cut it.
Honestly most low carb, high protein desserts have a really bad habit of tasting like what you would expect, okay, but lacking, you know? I can honestly say that this Snickerdoodle Cheesecake was not even remotely disappointing…does it taste like a freshly baked New York style cheesecake? no, but it definitely doesn’t taste like it’s low carb and high protein.
This cheesecake turned out to be perfectly satisfying and just exactly what I needed in my mouth in my life at that moment so I wouldn’t be driven crazy by my cravings. I used the PE Science brand of protein powder in snickerdoodle, which is absolutely one of my favorites and it totally added that extra oomph in this delicious dessert.
I definitely think you should make this if you’re having a major hankering for dessert, but are not exactly allowed to at the moment. Oh, and did I mention this was darn easy to make, way easier than normal cheesecake in my opinion haha. I hope you are having a wonderful day and thank you so much for stopping by!
