This light and airy keto dessert is spooky and pretty at the same time. The beautiful black-green marble effect is achieved by combining black chocolate cheesecake with green mint swirls. Similar to this Fluffy Keto Strawberry Cream, this low-carb dessert is no bake and there's no crust.
If you're not a fan of mint, simply skip the peppermint extract to get a basic vanilla flavoured green cheesecake swirl. You could use other flavours such as orange or almond extract.
Depending on the green food colouring you'll be using, you'll need anything from a few drops up to a tablespoon. I used natural green spirulina colouring which is not as vibrant so used about 2 teaspoons. Instead of food colouring you could use spirulina powder or even some matcha powder.
Just like in these Halloween Cheesecake Keto Brownies, I used black cocoa powder which is brilliant for making spooky treats. If you can't find black cocoa powder, swap with up to 4 tablespoons of Dutch process cocoa powder instead.

- Repeat for the mint cheesecake mixture. Once you drizzle in the gelatin liquid, the cheesecake mixture will become runny.
