Banting Cheesecake Recipe

This banting cheesecake recipe contains a minimal amount of carbohydrates. It also freezes well and therefore it is also a good idea to make yourself a whole batch in tartlet cups instead of a whole cake and to freeze the portions, only defrosting one at room temperature as needed. The individual cheesecakes defrost in about 15 minutes.
