Blackberries blended into smooth and creamy cheesecake batter, turned into little bars of decadence!
These cheesecake bars are every bit as decadent as they look! Blackberries are one of the Keto-friendly fruits with the lowest carbs.
They’re also high in antioxidants, fiber, are good for your brain, heart and immune system! Making them a part of your diet is a definite plus!
These bars only take a few steps to make and they also freeze beautifully so you can freeze some for later!

I’m glad you found them easy to make 🙂
