High Protein No Bake Hazelnut Cheesecake Cups | No Sugar, No Oven

Why You’ll Love This Recipe

If you have been looking for a high protein no bake cheesecake that is made with no oven, no refined sugar and no protein powder, these hazelnut cheesecake cups are the ones to save. A creamy filling of Greek yogurt and cream cheese is split into rich chocolate and vanilla layers, piped over a chocolate almond base and finished with a crunchy chocolate hazelnut ball. There is no baking and no complicated technique — just 15 minutes of prep and a few hours in the fridge to set.

The best part? They taste like an indulgent chocolate hazelnut dessert, not a diet version. Between the roasted hazelnut crunch, the silky cocoa layers and the sweet-tart tang of the cream cheese, nobody will guess these healthy cheesecake cups are high in protein and free from refined sugar. If you love easy no bake desserts and chocolate hazelnut flavours with a protein-rich twist, this belongs in your weekly rotation.

Ingredients You’ll Need

(Full measurements in the recipe card below)

• Greek yogurt & light cream cheese — the high-protein, creamy heart of the filling. Whisked smooth, they give that classic tangy cheesecake flavour with no protein powder needed.
• Almond flour — forms a soft chocolate almond base that presses firmly and sets in the fridge, no baking required.
• Cocoa powder & dark chocolate — build the deep chocolate layer and the crunchy topping. Use 70% dark chocolate to keep the sugar low.
• Hazelnut butter & roasted hazelnuts — the star flavour. Hazelnut butter runs through the filling while chopped roasted hazelnuts add crunch between the layers.
• Monk fruit sweetener — sweetens the base and filling without refined sugar. Use any granulated sweetener you like.
• Hazelnut essence — a few drops deepen the roasted hazelnut flavour so it really reads as a chocolate hazelnut dessert.
• Butter — binds the almond base so it holds together once chilled.
