    Get ready for flavorful, rich, and creamy NO CHURN low carb Cheesecake Ice Cream! This recipe is as easy to make as it is delicious, and it has less than 2g net carbs per serving.

    Low Carb Keto Cheesecake Ice Cream in Glass Ice Cream Bowl

    I've tried a few different types of low carb ice cream in my day. Some are ok, some are truly terrible, and some are pretty dang delicious.

    But then I realized that I can make a consistently amazing keto ice cream that blows my mind. Every.single.time.

    Without the need for an ice cream maker.

    Without all the preservatives.

    And without the high price tag of store-bought low carb ice cream!

    This Cheesecake Ice Cream Recipe tastes like cheesecake in ice cream form with the slightest hint of vanilla.

    It has just 1.74g net carbs per ⅓-cup serving! With less than 2g net carbs per serving for this ice cream, go ahead and top it with some sliced berries, stevia-sweetened chocolate chips, or homemade Keto Hot Fudge Sauce.

    Yup, you need that Keto Hot Fudge Sauce.

    Cream Cheese Ice Cream - Is it Good?!

    First things first, let's talk about the elephant in the room. The burning question is: Does cream cheese ice cream actually taste good?!

    I am happy to report a very emphatic "yes"! Cream cheese ice cream (aka Cheesecake Ice Cream) is actually pretty incredible.

    To me, it tastes like cheesecake, but in ice cream form. (So in terms of intuitive recipe-naming, #nailedit I guess, lol!)

    But in all seriousness, who doesn't love cheesecake? And ice cream?! So yes, make this. And if you like the two desserts it's named after, you'll love it!

    The Best Cheesecake Ice Cream Recipe

    We all love a good no-churn ice cream recipe, right? It doesn't get any easier than this one! And you probably already have all of the ingredients on hand to make it!

    Low Carb Keto Ice Cream

    Now let's talk about what makes this ice cream low carb and keto friendly. It's sugar free; instead of sugar I use Swerve Confectioners Sugar Replacement because it blends really well. 

    And you won't find any thickeners here! I use a combination of cream cheese and whipped heavy cream and the result is a thick + rich + creamy ice cream.

    Low Carb Keto Cheesecake Ice Cream Ingredients

    • Cream cheese
    • Water
    • Swerve Confectioners
    • Pure vanilla extract
    • Fresh lemon juice
    • Liquid stevia
    • Heavy whipping cream

    How to Make No Churn Cheesecake Ice Cream

    1. Beat the cream cheese, sweetener, and flavorings.
    2. Beat the heavy whipping cream in a separate bowl.
    3. Fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture.
    4. Freeze.
    5. Enjoy!

    How to Store This

    Store this in an airtight ice cream container in the freezer for up to 3 months.

    If you don't have an ice cream container, you can use another airtight food storage container. However, make sure your container is air-tight, otherwise the ice cream may get freezer burn. To help prevent this, you can lay a piece of plastic wrap directly on top of the ice cream before freezing.

    Let this ice cream set at room temperate for 10 to 15 minutes before scooping because this does freeze quite solid.

    Variations on This Recipe

    • Toppings or mix-ins. The sky is the limit with keto toppings or things you can mix in! A few ideas are stevia-sweetened chocolate chips, chopped dark chocolate, unsweetened shredded coconut, and chopped nuts.
    • Get fruity. This is delicious topped with a few fresh raspberries, blueberries, or chopped strawberries.
    • Go saucy. Keto Hot Fudge Sauce is my favorite, but I also love Low Carb Caramel Sauce. Or you can briefly warm some nut butter and drizzle that on top.
