Frequently Asked Keto Cheesecake Fluff Questions:
Q. Can you use cool whip in place of the heavy cream?
A. You could. Just know if you do so it will change the carb and fat count of this recipe.
Q. Could I add a crust to this keto dessert?
A. You could. Again just know that changing anything about this recipe will change the grams of net carbs and fat count. A great option to use if you really want to have a crust is to add a pistachio crust. You can do that by mixing some melted butter with crushed or chopped pistachios. If you added a graham cracker crust it would add way too many carbs to keep this pistachio fluff as a low-carb dessert.
Q. Could you use this as a pistachio cheesecake dip?
A. Yes with a little adjustment. If you want to use this as a dip, I would skip adding the gelatin. I would also add another 1/2 cup of cold heavy cream.
Q. Could you use this same recipe and just change the flavor of the pudding to have a different delicious dessert?
A. You sure can! Another great flavor would be to use a sugar-free lemon pudding mix or even banana cream!
Q. Could you make this simple recipe in a springform pan?
A. No. This recipe does not set as firm as a cheesecake so it really will not slice like bake desserts. It is more of an extra thick creamy mousse texture.
Q. If you are having family gatherings or parties could this wonderful recipe be made ahead of time?
A. Absolutely! This green stuff will last in the fridge for up to 5 days if stored properly.
Q. Can this recipe be doubled?
A. Yes! Simply just double all of the ingredients. This works best if you have a large low-carb family as it is always a huge hit and will soon become a family favorite.
