The Best Keto Cheesecake Dip with Chocolate Covered Strawberries
Jump to...
Introduction
We made this delicious dip to accompany some chocolate covered strawberries that we made for a New Year’s Eve get together. While the strawberries were delicious, this dip was even better! It really was the star of the dessert table. This dip found it’s way on to almost every other dessert that was there.
Keto Cheesecake Dip
It is whipped cream folded into beaten cream cheese, which is why it eats light rather than dense, and the hour in the fridge is what takes it from soft to firm enough that a strawberry comes out coated instead of dragging half the bowl with it.
It is a dip first, though it will do as a soft frosting, or with berries folded through it. Either way it stays in the refrigerator until it is wanted — this is whipped cream and cream cheese, not buttercream, and it is not built to sit out on a table.
Using Keto-Friendly Chocolate For Strawberries
Like I said before, we chose to dip chocolate covered strawberries into this dip. The method is as short as it sounds — melt the bars, dip each strawberry, then five minutes in the freezer to firm the shell — so the chocolate you start from does most of the work. We dipped our strawberries into some melted ChocZero dark chocolate bars. It melts and sets like ordinary chocolate, which is the part that matters when you are dipping.
ChocZero’s bars are low in net carbs and contain no sugar. They come in a lot of varieties, so check the one you pick — the bar is the part of this that you are not making yourself.

Correction — October 18, 2026: The Nutrition Facts now cover just the dip. They used to count the strawberries and their chocolate coating too.
