For the Chocolate Crust

• 2 low carb tortillas, torn into small pieces

For the Chocolate Cheesecake Filling

• 1 cup light cream cheese (room temp) 
• 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (2% or nonfat) 
• 1 large egg 
• 1/3 cup granulated sweetener (erythritol, monk fruit, or blend) 
• 2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder 
• 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

🧁 Directions

Make the Crust:

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). 
2. Blitz tortilla pieces in a food processor until they become fine crumbs. 
3. Stir in melted butter, sweetener, cocoa powder, and salt until well combined.

2. Add in Greek yogurt, sweetener, cocoa powder, egg, vanilla, and salt. Beat until smooth and fully incorporated. 
3. Pour over the crust and smooth the top. Add chocolate chips on top, if using. 
4. Bake at 325°F (160°C) for 25–35 minutes, or until edges are set and the center is just slightly wobbly. 
5. Let cool completely, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
