Summer Strawberry Recipes

Is it just me or is New England strawberry season taking its sweet time arriving this year? If you don’t live in New England, you probably don’t care, but honestly! I have been waxing poetic about strawberries since mid-April or so and yet a week into June and local strawberries still haven’t arrived.

It’s just been too darn cold and rainy, and even today, when it feels like summer is upon us, those sweet red berries are missing in action. Local strawberry season usually starts at the end of May but I’ve checked most of my favourite U-Pick farms and the strawberries just aren’t ready yet. With more cool wet weather predicted for this week, I am beginning to wonder if they will ever be ready. Imagine a year where we skip berry season entirely. How sad would that be? I think life might no longer be worth living.

Regardless, I shall persevere and create delicious low carb recipes using strawberries for those of you in strawberry-rich locales. Why should you have to suffer without ways to use up your fresh-picked berries just because my region is lagging behind? I am nothing if not considerate like that.

You can use fresh strawberries to make:

To that end, I took it upon myself to get some non-local berries at Trader Joe’s the other day, so that I could work on a rich, no-bake cheesecake I had been envisioning for a while. It doesn’t hurt that this creation happened to satisfy my craving for chocolate, strawberries and cheesecake  all in one fell swoop.

I call it my Chocolate Covered Strawberry No Bake Cheesecake recipe. I also call it insanely delicious. I am pretty sure you will too.

Best Low Carb No Bake Cheesecake Recipe

And the fact that it is a no bake cheesecake recipe is just the icing on the cake. Or the chocolate ganache on the cake, in this instance.

I started out with the intention of baking the cheesecake but I’ve been playing more and more with healthy grassfed gelatin, working it into my family’s diet where I can. And in a nod to the warm weather that is supposedly approaching, I figured I would skip the oven altogether and set the strawberry cheesecake filling with gelatin. It worked beautifully and it allowed me to set a border of sliced berries around the outside of the cake to make it look all fancy. And a thick layer of sugar-free chocolate ganache to top it all off.

I am not lying when I say that this low carb, grain-free cheesecake is phenomenal. It is everything I hoped it would be and more, and it really isn’t difficult to make. Now just imagine how good the no bake cheesecake would be if I had picked all the berries myself?

  6. This looks good enough to eat! I am curious though…..Is it made with 32 oz of cream cheese? or did you mean 2-8 oz packages of cream cheese. Just double checking. Thanks!

    Reply

  7. This looks great! Since it’s easily available here, would using a gelatin like Knox work? Would it be the same measurement?

    Reply

      • Would it just be softer with Knox? Or a different texture? I do keep meaning to try grassfed gelatin, but it’s so spendy. Between that and Swerve…oh well. Off this topic, do you have any experience with food grade vegetable glycerine?

        Reply

        • It may be spendy, but that container lasts a good long time! I am really enjoying my foray into grassfed gelatin. I think the knox stuff has more jelling power for less amount. The consistency doesn’t seem different to me.

          Funny you should ask about glycerin. I have used it a number of times in my ice cream and it really helps things stay soft and scoopable. My issue is that I can’t get a good read on how many effective carbs it has so I tend to leave it out of my recipes when I write them up because I can’t tell my readers how many carbs it has.

          Reply

          • I found the nutrition facts here:

            http://www.swansonvitamins.com/heritage-products-vegetable-glycerin-4-fl-oz-liquid

            1 tsp is 5g of carbs and it’s considered a sugar alcohol with limited affect on blood sugar.

            http://www.netrition.com/now_glycerine_page.html

            “Although glycerine is a carbohydrate, it has a different metabolic effect on the body. Unlike typical carbohydrates, glycerine reportedly has minimal impact on blood sugar levels. You should still count the calories (4.3 calories per gram) you are consuming from this product, since even a low carbohydrate diet needs some calorie control, but you do not need to worry about disrupting ketosis because there is no evidence that glycerine effects blood sugar, which is the way that normal carbohydrates disrupt ketosis.”

        • Did you use 2 envelopes of Knox and did it turn out okay? How much water did you use and did you let it sit 1 minute just like the instructions for the grass-fed gelatin say to do?

          Reply

          • Definitely don’t use 2 packets Knox…it’s stronger than the grassfed and will firm your cake up too much. 1 to 1 1/2 packets is probably better. And yes, still sprinkle over the water and let sit.

  8. Oh. My. I was going to make your chocolate peanut butter cake for my birthday, but I may have just changed my mind after seeing this gorgeous baby.

    Reply

  9. Yeah, 12 year old son saw this and said, “I might want that for my birthday.” Now, I’m pretty sure I gotta make it. I may have to practice it once for myself first though, heh, heh, heh.

    Reply

  11. Amazing! Eating some right now – haven’t put the ganache on yet, but it is so delicious and beautiful! A Winner… do have a question though:
    Would you have a guess as to how much puree you have after the berries are done and have added the gelatin? Reason being, I have some berries in freezer that I prepped and pureed last season and they would work out perfectly – just need to only add the correct amount.
    Thanks so much for the work you do in allowing us to recreate your recipes. They are gorgeous, healthy, and delicious. Triple Win!!

    Reply

    • Good question, I didn’t measure it after I pureed it. I’d imagine it would be 1 1/2 to 2 cups worth?

      Reply

  12. Our strawberries are JUST starting to arrive here in New Jersey, and I’m definitely going to divert some from all my jam-making to this gorgeous cake! What is it about strawberries and chocolate that is so mesmerizing?

    Reply

      • Thanks, I’ll stick to the Now Brand Beef Gelatin I have, it’s similar to what you call for. And btw, LOVE< LOVE<LOVE your site! Has been a huge help to me over the last 16 months of my journey to better health through following Trim Healthy Mama. A Huge Thanks!

        Reply

  16. I didn’t notice any sugar counts on the nutritional info…do you know how much sugar is in this recipe?

    Reply

    • There are some natural sugars in it from the strawberries. According to my software, it comes to 3 g per serving. But no added sugars at all.

      Reply

  18. Eating some right now…mmm. This is so good. I’m delighted my son took a nice long nap today so I could make the first two layers. Added the ganache tonight and it was well worth the wait. Excited I found another great use of my Great Lakes gelatin!

    To the poster who asked if the green can would work – it won’t. It doesn’t thicken like the red can. I keep both on hand and use green in drinks and red to make jello…and now cheesecake!
    My thanks for the wonderful recipe that kept my FL kitchen a little cooler today!

    Reply

  20. Oops! I made mine with 32 oz of cream cheese according to the original recipe. It still came out good, more like mousse cake rather than the cheesecake, well, will need to make it right with only 16 oz of cream cheese.

    Reply

    • I am so sorry about that! I caught the mistake (or rather a reader did) within about 2 hours of posting the recipe but you must have jumped on it early! I wrote 2 16-oz packages when I really meant 2 8-oz packages or 16 oz total.

      Reply

  22. Just tried this and it was AMAZING. This could be a dessert that you serve to people who don’t eat gluten free or sugar free and I don’t think they would know the difference.

    Thanks, I plan to make this again!

  23. Could I substitute whole fat coconut milk for the whipping cream? I trying to cut back on dairy but can’t do without the cream cheese.

    Reply

    • I think that should work but make sure you do proper coconut whipped cream with it by refrigerating the can overnight and then pouring off the watery stuff, then whip it for a few minutes.

      Reply

  24. Thanks for the great recipes! I made this for Father’s day using fresh raspberries from my mom’s garden. Half of my guests were LC and the rest weren’t and the cheesecake was loved by all. Very pretty presentation and tasted amazing.

    Reply

  25. I made this for Father’s Day and wanted to say thank you. It came out perfectly and my husband (who doesn’t typically like anything with cream cheese) declared it was “divine”. It was wonderful to stay on track over the weekend and still have a beautiful treat for everyone to share. Thank you. (Plus, it’s absolutely gorgeous and makes me feel like a rock star! Wahoo!)

    Reply

  26. I much prefer no-bake cheesecakes because it’s so dang hot in Texas I just won’t heat up my oven to bake for 4 months straight. Can’t wait to try this one, Carolyn. Looks so pretty, and delicious.

    Reply

  27. Looks GORGEOUS! Silly question – if I were to halve the recipe, would I still use a 9″ springform and it would just be flatter? And would it be 8 servings, or still 16 since it would still fill a 9″ circle?

    Thanks!!

    Reply

  28. Made this yesterday and took over to my folks’ house. Not only is it pretty to look at, but it was delicious too!!! It really did taste like a chocolate covered strawberry – yummy!!!! My parents said that I don’t even need to tell people it’s sugarless – it’s that good. Thanks!

    Reply

  29. I just got strawberries and I am going to make this tomorrow. Just a couple of questions,
    I have always made ganache with cream so I was wondering why you use the butter instead? Also I don’t have grass fed gelatin only knox (for now), would I use the same amount? Thanks 🙂

    Reply

    • Unsweetened chocolate will usually seize if you add cream to it, so it’s not great for making conventional ganache. For the gelatin, just use two envelopes of Knox.

      Reply

      • Thanks for that info. I know chocolate will seize with water but I didn’t know about the unsweetened. Making the cake this afternoon 🙂

        Reply

        • Unsweetened chocolate is very temperamental. I had a couple of seized batches using cream so I switched up my method!

          Reply

  30. Mine is chilling/setting in the fridge right now! Hope it turns out–I was a little concerned at how watery the strawberry mixture was and how wet the final batter seemed to be. Hopefully the gelatin does its thing!

    Reply

  31. I took this to a 2nd round world cup match viewing party (Netherlands killed my country’s hope of advancing). It was an absolute hit. I didn’t tell anyone it was low carb; they really didn’t need to know 🙂
    The only regret I have is that I left the 4 remaining slices behind for the hosts.

    Reply

  32. Made this for our family BBQ today and it was a huge hit! One of the best low carb desserts I’ve made so far and I’ve really liked all of them! My husband had another slice tonight and also posted a picture on Facebook bragging about me, LOL.

    Reply

  33. Thanks so much for this recipe! I made it yesterday and got everyone raving about it. It tasted heavenly!

    Reply

  34. For the unsweetend chocolate, what brand it best? I have used Baker’s but it seemed a little bitter. Also unsweetened cocoa (Hersheys?).
    Thanks

    Reply

    • I usually use Ghirardelli for unsweetened…it melts better and doesn’t seize as easily as bakers. For cocoa, I usually use Hershey’s Special Dark.

      Reply

  35. We just ate this and it was DELICIOUS! I’ve never made such a pretty dessert. Thanks for this recipe! My husband said it’s a keeper 😀

    Reply

  36. I was quite stressed when I made this cheesecake since I’ve never made cheesecake before. But it was a good feeling to walk out triumphantly with the final beautiful product. The only thing was it was still soft when I cut it. In bowls it wasn’t as firm as your pic, but rather like a thick mouse. I used gelatine instead of gelatin, and making it with cold water made a thick paste instead of dissolving like a liquid. Do you think the gelatine that didn’t mix right made the cake not set right?

    Reply

  37. I just made your No Bake Chocolate Covered Strawberry Cheesecake this weekend. I added a thin layer of strawberry gelee before the ganache.

    Hands down the best low-carb, sugar-free dessert I’ve ever had!

    Considering I’ve been addicted to your Peanut Butter Dirt Cake for about a year, I have a feeling I now have a new addiction!

    Thanks for your recipes. They never fail and they always satisfy!

  39. This was amazing and a great way to introduce my mom to low carb treats. I think she is convinced :). BTW I used knox gelatin, HALF the amount called for in the recipe and it set up perfectly. I assumed that stuff would be industrial strength. Also the ratios on the back of the box indicate how much liquid one packet can set up. Happily, here in California we get wonderful strawberries at the farmer’s market year-round!!

  41. I’m hosting a bachelorette party and would like to make this ahead of time for the party. Do you think it will freeze well? Or how long will it keep in the fridge?

    Reply

    • Freezing it will change the consistency and may make the chocolate bloom (go grey). I’d recommend the fridge, it will be fine for 3 or 4 days.

      Reply

  42. After making this several times for my family I decided to bring it to a pot luck. This time I made it as cupcakes and it was a big hit for low carbers and regular eaters as well. The recipe fit perfectly into 24 cupcake wrappers, but I ran low on the crust so I had to make a little bit more. Thanks again for a great recipe.

    Reply

  43. Carolyn, I love your webiste, great recipes and great sense of humor! as for this recipe, would it also work with cherries instead of strawberries? Their texture is a bit firmer than that of strawberries – would more water be needed when heating them? What do you think? Thanks, Julia

    Reply

    • Yes I would think more water but you could also puree them first to make them release their juice. It will raise the carb count a fair bit to use cherries.

      Reply

  44. Oh Carolyn, I made this and it is so yummy! I subbed Stevia in the Raw for half of the Swerve to cut down on the cooling effect of the Swerve. I also subbed raw sunflower flour for the almond flour in the crust since I have a tree nut allergy. It was the first time I’ve ever tried that and it worked wonderfully! Thank you for such a great recipe!

    Reply

  45. I love your recipes and am so thankful for them. I made this one and just ate it. My husband and I can hardly describe how good it was. I didn’t have quite enough strawberries, so I added raspberries. I only used half the Swerve in the chocolate ganache and it was still pretty sweet. Everyone should definitely try this one.

  46. is there anything i can use besides almond flour cause i want to make for me and friend and she allergic to almonds

  47. Just made this dessert for company. Delicious, as are all your recipes I have tried. Just wondering if leftovers can be frozen?

  48. Thank you for the amazing recipe.
    Just one question, did you try using xanthan gum instead of gelatine? I saw we can substitute in baking using half of the amount asked for gelatine.
    I’ll definitely try it anyway and I’ll tell you later. Wish me good luck! 😉

    Reply

  49. Thanks for the recipe! I ran across this while looking for a sugar free chocolate covered strawberry recipe. One question though….while it does taste very decadent, is there anyway to make the ganache creamier? More like a milk chocolate taste? I used bakers unsweetened chocolate if that makes any difference.

    Reply

  50. This is amazing! Made this recipe the other day with just the granular (not powdered) Swerve and it was amazing! Like a strawberry mousse with a brownie crust. My fiance and mom loved it and I made sure to write it down. Thank you for a great, low-carb/sugar-free recipe!

    Reply

  52. I made this and brought it into work. Everyone loved it but thought it was a bit too firm (I used 2 TBS of grass-fed gelatin). If I used half the amount, do you think it would still turn out okay? Or maybe half a packet of Knox?

    Thanks! I wiped the cheesecake out in a matter of days – it made a great breakfast!

    Reply

  53. Hi! Your recipe is awesome! I just have a question: can I use coconut flour instead of Almond flour? Here in Mexico it’s rather difficult to find it… Thanks!

    Reply

    • No, unfortunately that would not make a good crust for this cake. Can you get any sort of nut and grind it?

      Reply

  54. BY FAR the best strawberry cheesecake recipe I’ve ever tried! I wouldn’t even hesitate to call this the best low-carb cheesecake recipe out there, strawberry or traditional! I’ve already made this at least 5 times. It’s definitely worth the 3 hour setting period:) The crust is phenomenal, and the filling is unbelievable. It’s really hard to get a strawberry cheesecake to taste like actual strawberries in my experience, but that was no problem with this one. Thank you so much for this recipe:)

  55. Okay, I think we are going to have two desserts for Easter. Can’t wait to try this cheesecake!!! It looks beautiful. Thank you. Carolyn you are awesome!!!

  56. I have read through all the comments and don’t think I’ve seen the question I have, so I hope this isn’t a repeat. Can I use 1/3 less fat cream cheese or do you suggest sticking with regular full fat?

    Reply

  58. Try as I may, this can not be messed up — still good cheesecake. I had all the ingredients except Swerve and orange can gelatin(no problem), I used stevia, truvia, and vegetable glycerin for sweetener and knox for gelatin. I even had fresh cream in the freezer from my goats, which I have decided would never convert to butter (been there and can’t do that). This seems like the perfect use for that cream. Guess what turned into vanilla flavored butter? Now what? Decided to heck with it and added remaining ingredients. Served it for supper — all liked it and are looking forward to next serving. Thanks! Oh and after serving, I realized I forgot the chocolate topping. See? can’ mess it up — I tried!

  60. I don’t love baked cheesecake, but this was one of the best things I’ve ever eaten! Husband and kids were wowed. Thanks for making me look like a culinary genius!

  61. A big hello from the Netherlands! I love your site and have made several recipes so far with great success.
    I would like to make this delicious looking cheese cake as well, but…. I really hate gelatin…. I never seem to get it smooth and it always stays clumpy…. Do you think it would work without the gelatin and just put some extra cream cheese in?

    Reply

    • Yes, you could do this without gelatin (sounds to me like you have the non-grassfed kind, that’s where the lumpiness comes in!). Try either adding a touch more cream cheese or reducing the added cream to get the right consistency.

  68. This is my go-to keto dessert. Everyone absolutely loves it! Ive made it with blueberries and raspberries as well and it is just as beautiful to look at as it is delicious to eat…Especially with bluberries… it comes out a goreous purple color. I noticed with raspberry mixture I needed to add a bit more sweetener due to my raspberries being very tart. Other than that no alterations needed from the original recipe. Do yourself and your family a favor and make this cheesecake. Trying it with pumpkin puree next!!

  70. I am looking forward to making this for our study group meeting on Monday. I will be using Knox gelatin and granulated swerve and frozen berries. . Do you have any suggestions or cautions I did purchase ghirardelli chocholate at your suggestion. Looking forward to your response Can’t wait to make this yummy recipe.

    Reply

    • If you are using Knox, be sure to add it to a few tbsp of cold water first. Let it bloom and then warm it gently and whisk to dissolve. Only then can you add it to the cream cheese mixture.

  71. I am making this for a Valentine’s dessert & wondering if I use the same amount of Trim Healthy Mama’s Beef Gelatin? Also is Sweet Leaf’s Stevia drops ok for the liquid stevia? This is my first time using liquid stevia in something besides a drink.

  73. What other sweetener would you recommend if I find Stevie & Swerve have a pretty bad after taste?

  74. This was so delicious. I messed upon the recipe and it still turned out delicious. I need to make this again.

  77. Hi Carolyn! I just made this cheesecake. Do you think it would be ok to freeze slices? So looking forward to trying it later today!

  79. this may be an odd question, I am not good at adjusting recipes, so I always follow as written, but my husband does not like the bitterness of cocoa powder and wondered if I could use chocolate flavored egg white protein powder in place of the cocoa? Thanks!

    Reply


  80. Mine is in the refrigerator right now. The minute I saw the recipe this morning I knew I’d found what to do with the strawberries that were needing to be used. I have a smaller (7″) spring-form pan that I used. So did half the recipe. I’ll let you know how it works out! Because there is only me, I like your smaller cake and goodie recipes because I know halving something doesn’t always work. I am so hoping this one does!

    Reply


  81. Well it worked! I’m still lousy at pouring on the ganache – it was waaaaaaay to stiff!
    Ah shoot, I might have to make it a few more times to get it right! 😉
    I do have 2 questions – do you oil your pan? I used some coconut oil and had no problem in getting the sides off which surprised me and made me happy. And #2 How do you get the lumps of whipped cream smooth when mixing with the rest of the batter? I was afraid to over mix it so I have lumps of whipped cream (not that you notice with the chocolate on top, but still!)
    Thanks for the recipe Carolyn!

    Reply

    • You do need to keep folding to get the whipped cream mixed in properly. I did not grease my pan and the sides still come off easily. Hope that helps!
