Description

This carnivore cheesecake is my go-to dessert when I want something indulgent yet simple, rich yet nourishing. With only a handful of ingredients—cream cheese, butter, eggs, and a touch of salt—you end up with a silky, creamy cheesecake that feels every bit as decadent as a traditional version. It’s naturally low-carb, dense with protein, and incredibly satisfying without relying on any crust, flour, or sugar. Whether you’re following a strict carnivore lifestyle or just looking for a clean, high-fat dessert that doesn’t leave you feeling heavy, this cheesecake is the perfect choice. It’s easy to make, requires minimal prep, and stores wonderfully for days.


Ingredients

  • Full-fat cream cheese
  • Eggs
  • Butter
  • Salt
  • Optional vanilla extract
  • Optional carnivore-friendly sweetener


Instructions

  • Beat softened cream cheese until smooth.
  • Add eggs one at a time, mixing gently.
  • Blend in melted butter and optional vanilla.
  • Pour batter into a buttered baking pan.
  • Bake at 325°F until edges set and center slightly jiggles.
  • Cool before slicing.

Notes

  • Let the cheesecake fully cool for the best texture. For a firmer slice, chill for two hours before serving. Mascarpone can be substituted for cream cheese for a creamier finish.
