Sugar-Free “Brown Sugar” Apple Dip (Low Carb)

 

While I prefer my fruits fresh for the most part, I do love apple-anything desserts! (Okay, I also love this low carb/sugar-free cherry delight too!) Apples are a perfect snack (if you’re not keto). They are delicious, not messy, portable, and readily-available. But how I really love my apples is with a yummy, caramely apple dip. The one that I have made for thirty years is still a family favorite (1 package cream cheese, 1/2 cup (or more!) brown sugar, and 1 TBSP vanilla). However, for daily fare and for me and Hubby, I prefer to make a low carb/sugar-free one that is seriously just as tasty!

Five Sugar-Free Cream Cheese Frostings

Five Sugar-Free Cream Cheese Frosting Recipes

 

 

One of the low carb, sugar-free treats that I have not enjoyed is the many frosting recipes that are out there. Combining Pyure (or other sugar-free, healthy sweeteners) with butter hasn’t yielded a good taste in my opinion. I feel like the sweetener overpowers the frosting—and you can really tell that it is not powdered sugar in there!

 

So…in keeping with my theory of diluting the less-familiar (and maybe less desired) tastes in my recipes, I have been toying with cream cheese frostings for two years now. And I’ve made it!

Cherry/Berry Delight

One of the true delights of low carb cooking (if you are not lactose intolerant or following some other non-dairy plan) has got to be cream cheese. While I was never one to eat cream cheese and bagels (too bland for me—I like sweet!), I have grown to love cream cheese in many other ways (sweet and savory) in my low carb and healthy cooking and baking.

 

Sugar Free Cherry Delight

As a matter of fact, I have loved it so much that I developed the Cream Cheese Dessert Base that uses cream cheese as the foundation for many desserts. I found that if I make this mix and have it in my refrigerator (or freezer) at all times, I am less prone to wander from my healthful eating path.

Sugar-Free Easy Crustless Cheesecake

 

Prior to cooking low carb/healthful baked goods, I had never made cheesecake! Something about springform pans freaked me out. The cheesecakes at the wholesale club were well-liked by my kids. And I honestly don’t love cheesecake. It’s just okay. (But my cheesecake “whip” types of desserts—like cherry delight, peanut butter pie, etc., now those are UH-MAZE-ING!)

 

Sugar-Free Easy Crustless Cheesecake

 

But many people love cheesecakes. And they are so easy to make healthier. And they are so easy to make with my Cream Cheese Dessert Base!
