Sugar-Free Cream Cheese Sticky Cake Bars

🧈 Ingredients

Crust Layer

  • 1 ½ cups almond flour
  • ¼ cup salted butter, melted
  • 3 tbsp allulose or monk fruit sweetener
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Creamy “Sticky” Filling

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup powdered allulose (or monk fruit powdered)
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

🍰 Instructions

1️⃣ Make the Crust

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Line an 8×8 baking pan with parchment.
  • Mix almond flour, melted butter, sweetener, and vanilla.
  • Press evenly into the bottom of the pan.
  • Bake 10 minutes, just until lightly set.

2️⃣ Make the Sticky Filling

  • Beat cream cheese until smooth.
  • Add eggs one at a time.
  • Mix in sweetener, heavy cream, vanilla, and a pinch of salt.
  • Pour over your pre-baked crust.

3️⃣ Bake

  • Bake 30–35 minutes until the edges are golden and the center still has a slight jiggle.
  • Do NOT overbake — gooey is the goal!

4️⃣ Cool & Slice

  • Let cool completely for clean slices.
  • Slice into 16 squares.
  • Store in fridge — they get even BETTER the next day.

💡 Tips for Perfect Sticky Bars

  • Powdered allulose gives the gooey texture (granular sweeteners won’t be as smooth).
  • Want extra richness? Add 2 tbsp sour cream to the filling.
  • For a golden glossy top like the picture, broil 10–20 seconds at the end — watch closely!
