Mini Peanut Butter and Jelly Cheesescakes slather strawberry jelly between layers of peanut butter cheesecake. A creamy no bake version with fewer calories thanks to Swerve Sweetener.
I recently got on a cheesecake kick thanks to my granddaughter. She said, “Gram. Let’s make cheesecakes just for fun!”
So we made a batch of mini, 3-inch no bake strawberry cheesecakes and filled a few homemade chocolate cups too. I hate to think how many calories I ate that weekend!
That got me thinking. I really do a lot of baking. I’m also the taste tester and hate to waster better eat it one here.
So when The Recipe ReDux offered us a zero calorie product to try that tastes, bakes and measures like sugar, I was in!

Swerve is made from all-natural plant derived Erythritol. Erythritol, has a high GI tolerance, and does not cause the digestive
issues associated with other sugar alcohols. Diabetics can enjoy using Swerve as a sugar substitute since it does not affect blood sugar. Swerve is born and raised in New Orleans with no preservatives or artificial flavors.

Don’t stop with baked goods. Swerve can sweeten drinks and sauces too.
