This recipe was the result of a happy accident, don’t you love when that happens? I had been working on some strawberry cheesecake fat bombs for Valentine’s Day and also happened to be eating my basic vanilla chia seed pudding for breakfast when I realized if I combined the two I would have an amazing parfait! 

This recipe has the benefits of a fat bomb but by adding the chia seed pudding layer it really stretches this into a nutritious snack that is quite filling! It also makes a great meal prep option because it can be made in advance. 

What ingredients Keto Strawberry Cheesecake Parfaits?

This recipe requires only a handful of basic ingredients and is highly customizable based on your personal preferences. The ingredients you need are:

• Unsweetened Almond Milk
• Chia Seeds
• Vanilla Extract
• Confectioners Swerve Sweetener
• Cream Cheese
• Strawberries
• Heavy Cream (can sub almond milk if you want to lower the fat content or do not have it)

How do you make Keto Cheesecake Parfaits?

This easy low carb parfait has two components. The base is a creamy no bake strawberry cheesecake layer that is made by combining cream cheese, strawberries, confectioners swerve heavy cream and vanilla extract. To make this simple I do not drag out my mixer I just add the ingredients to my small blender and pulse until the mixture is creamy. 

The second layer is basic vanilla chia seed pudding. This is my go to recipe that I have most mornings. It is simply unsweetened almond milk, chia seeds, swerve confectioners and vanilla extract. I love this combination because it is so basic. It has a mildly sweet but vanilla flavor that I love and it works great with toasted coconut, chopped nuts or berries. 

As with any chia seed pudding you must allow the mixture to set and absorb the liquid. I find that stirring the mixture vigorously occasionally speeds up the process tremendously. 

To assemble the parfaits I use my favorite 7 ounce mini Wreck jars. This makes three servings so spoon the strawberry cheesecake layer among 3 jars and top with the chia seed pudding. If you wish, you can add whipped cream on top. I like to use the Rediwhip Almondmilk version, it is very low in carb and handy to keep in the fridge. 

What are some other easy keto snacks?

My favorite keto meal prep are these easy sausage egg and cheese bites. They have less than one net carb each. You can easily make a batch over the weekend and have a delicious grab and go breakfast or snack all week. I also love this Lemon Chia Seed Pudding when I want something sweet and tangy. Some of my other favorites include:

• Easy Keto Pizza Bites (less than one net carb each)
• Keto Chili Cheese Chips (ONE net carb and they taste just like Chili Cheese Fritos!)
• Sausage Cream Cheese Pinwheels (2 net carbs each)
• Keto Peanut Butter Fudge (3 ingredients and only 2 net carbs each!)

Since living a keto lifestyle and paying more attention to carb count, sometimes I am blown away by how many carbs things have. According to the Starbucks website, a 16-ounce Peppermint Mocha Frappuccino has a whopping 69 grams of carbs. Wow!

This low-carb, keto peppermint mocha frappuccino has just under 4 net carbs for the same size and to be honest, I think it is even better — not to mention cheaper!

Ingredients in a Peppermint Mocha Frappuccino 

• Strongly Brewed Coffee
• Unsweetened Almond Milk
• Heavy Cream
• Sweetener of choice (I used swerve to keep this recipe keto) 
• Cocoa Powder
• Ice
• Peppermint Extract

Can I Omit the Coffee? 

Yes! If you’d like to make a classic low-carb peppermint frappuccino, I recommend following this recipe instead. It still contains peppermint extract and cocoa powder, but there’s no caffeine or coffee in it. 

Can I Use Another Non-Dairy Milk?

Yes, you’re welcome to use your favorite unsweetened non-dairy milk in this recipe. 

How to Make a Peppermint Mocha Frappuccino

This recipe simply could not get an easier. You just need a good blender! 

Once you combine the coffee, almond milk, cream, sweetener, cocoa powder, ice and peppermint extract, just blend until smooth.

You can top your peppermint mocha frappe with extra whipped cream, sugar-free chocolate chips, or a crushed sugar-free peppermint for a real treat! 

Tips for Making a Sugar-Free Frappuccino 

• The one thing this recipe does require is a good strong cold coffee. I like to make a batch of iced coffee to have in the fridge, but if you prefer to do small batch you can brew extra strong coffee or espresso the night (or a few hours) before and let it chill in the fridge. 
• I made my copycat Starbucks peppermint mocha frappuccino keto-friendly and sugar-free, but you’re welcome to use regular sugar instead of a sugar-free alternative if desired. 
• I recommend enjoying your keto frappuccino right away, as it doesn’t keep well in the freezer.
