These Keto Pumpkin Cheesecake Cookies are the perfect recipe to get yourself really in that fall baking mood. They have only 1g net carb each, they’re gluten-free, and surprisingly easy to make! This is the first recipe that inspired me to create more cheesecake filled cookies — I now have Oreo cheesecake filled cookies, snickerdoodle pumpkin cheesecake filled cookies, and peanut butter cheesecake cookies!
Let me know if you have any other flavor ideas or requests! I want to keep making more versions of cheesecake filled cookies!

Once you get the hang of the process of putting these little cookies together, it’s actually surprisingly easy. They’re kind of like little hand pies filled with cheesecake filling. While they’re slightly more complex to make than a regular drop cookie, the effort is well worth it for the results. I think these bite photos speak for themselves…
The cookie exterior is soft, chewy, and full of pumpkin spice flavor, while the inside filling is light and creamy. They’re truly the perfect compliment to each other! Find the recipe below, try it, and let me know what you think.
On every page of the Keto Dessert eBook 2.0, you have the full recipe, a color photo, instructions, as well as full nutritional breakdown with calories and macros calculated per serving. Every single recipe is contained to just one page each, so it’s super easy to use and read. You can also easily print out pages as needed, or the entire thing.
