- ½ cup coconut flour
- ½ cup almond flour
- 3 tablespoons flaxseed meal (or arrowroot starch)
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 tablespoons butter (or ghee or coconut oil), melted
- ½ cup whole milk (or coconut milk)
- 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
- 1 cup grass-fed sour cream or plain Greek yogurt
- ¼ cup grass-fed heavy cream
- 4 (8-ounce) packages organic cream cheese
- ½ tablespoon pure vanilla extract
- 1¼ cup organic sugar or coconut palm sugar (add up to ¾ cup more sugar for sweeter palates)
- 4 pasture-raised eggs
- 1 tablespoon grass-fed butter
- ¼ cup dark chocolate chips
- Preheat oven to 350°F and grease a 9-inch springform pan.
- In a bowl, combine crust ingredients and press in one even layer on the bottom of the springform pan.
- To your blender or food processor, add sour cream, heavy cream, cream cheese, vanilla and sugar. Blend smooth.
- Add eggs and blend until well incorporated. Be careful not to over mix the eggs.
- Pour cheesecake batter over crust into springform pan.
- Bake cheesecake for about 1 hour and 20 minutes, until firm. No peeking till the end! The cheesecake is done when the outside is firm and the middle slightly jiggles like custard.
- Turn off the oven, but leave cheesecake in there for about an hour with the door cracked open.
- Once cooled, refrigerate overnight.
- In a small saucepan, melt 1 tablespoon butter over low heat. Once melted, remove from heat and add chocolate chips. Stir until melted. Drizzle chocolate over the top of the cheese cake.
After mixing up the cheesecake filling, divide it into 2 portions. In one half of the batter, stir in ¾ cup creamy peanut butter. In the other half, stir the rest of the melted chocolate.
Pour about ¼ of the peanut butter cheesecake filling into the springform pan, then pour in about ¼ of the chocolate cheesecake filling. Alternate until all the filling is in the pan. Bake according to the recipe directions.
Did somebody say cheesecake?
Life just wouldn’t be the same without decadent treats like chocolate cheesecake. And when you make yours with real food, Wild Diet friendly ingredients, you really can “have your cake and eat it, too.”
Now, I don’t like to use the term “cheat meal.” It just sounds like an invitation for sabotage.
I like the idea of a “free meal” or “treat day” though. It’s a more empowering concept.
And in reality, the occasional indulgence can actually be metabolically beneficial by bumping up leptin levels to help you break through a fat loss plateau! Cycling calories and carbs can be a powerful tool for stimulating your metabolism.
But more importantly, giving yourself permission to enjoy a treat now and then can help you cultivate a healthy relationship with food.
Here are a few tips from The Wild Diet for making your “free meals” count:
- Indulge on a day off. Having free time away from work gives you more control over when and where you eat, you’ll be having fun (not stress-eating), and you can also more easily monitor the results.
- Make a reservation at your favorite restaurant so you can look forward to your indulgence.
- Keep a “food craving” diary—just a little book or note on your phone or computer where you jot down the things you crave throughout the week. That way you can choose carefully when it’s time for your free meal.
- Drink at least 8 8-ounce glasses of water throughout the day so you can easily flush excess salt and carbohydrates.
- Never eat your free meal alone—sharing a meal or dessert will help you enjoy it, fostering that healthy relationship to food.
- Throw away or give away all the leftovers so they don’t taunt you from the fridge tomorrow!
Final Tip: Stay Wild
You deserve the best-tasting, highest-quality food out there. Don’t waste your “free meal” on processed junk. Low-quality food from boxes and fast food chains does number on your gut, gives you brain fog, inflames your joints and body, and sacrifices your long-term health.
Once your body is adapted to real food, it hurts to eat the junk. Share on XIf you’ve been eating The Wild Diet for a while, your body will start to reject processed modern dwarf wheat and carcinogenic yellow dye #5.
If you want cake, get it from a local artisan bakery, not from Little Debbie. If you want pizza, don’t pick up a Hot-n-Ready, get it from your local family-owned pizzeria that use fresh ingredients and actually takes pride in their pies.
If you’re craving cheesecake, don’t grab one out of the grocer’s freezer! Instead, enjoy a small slice of this cheesecake made with real food and free of added chemicals.
Or better yet, take this masterpiece to a gathering, and impress friends with your “diet” food.
Oh, and one last tip: If there is such a thing as a “free lunch,” it’s directly after your workout. So, make sure to get in strength training or a Wild 7 Workout on the same day that you indulge in this delightful dessert.
After all, cheesecake is good for the soul.

Thank You for this recipe! Shared on my blog 🙂
Yay! Glad you enjoyed it, Kay. Thanks for sharing it!
I would need to know the carbs per serving before I attempt to make this one. Can you provide that information?
Hi Grace, we don’t personally count macronutrients, but adding the ingredients to whichever program you use to track calories/macros (like fitbit) will give you the exact counts. Enjoy!
My goodness how many calories in a slice…
This looks amazing!! I have tried your Chicken Parm it was Amazing, I made the Bone soup and ate the marrow with my eggs, I tried the coconut cookies they are Amazing OMGEE I love the way your food recipes are simple and delicious.

Wish I had a oven. Love cheesecake… My fave!
Do you truly have to put it in the fridge overnight!?! Not sure I can wait that long. Just made it and the batter was awesome!
do you give the nutritional value of the recipe, like carbs, fats, calories, etc?
Sounds amazing!!!! I can’t wait to try it! My fiancé and I just got your book and started the “diet”. I am actually excited about our journey to better health and better food. We don’t have to sacrifice anything!
how does this recipe freeze? I would love to make it but OMG I fear I may indulge more then I would like to.
The cheesecake is amazing!!! Gave me an instant jolt of “clean” energy!
I would suggest modifying the recipe to say “mixer” instead of “blender” as the filling is so think that the blender struggled to handle it.
I just made this recipe and the filling is good, just the crust is kindof crumbly and tastes undercooked, maybe next time I will bake the crust first and then add the filling
You guys seriously need to discover the Instant Pot (digital pressure cooker)! Makes the BEST cheesecake, plus loads of other fabulous dishes!
We have one – we’ll definitely try a cheesecake Instant Pot!
I like Strawberry Cheesecake. It’s my favorite. How would I modify to make it?
Can we substitute chia for the flax? Flax is not good for guys – estrogens…
Sure, experiment and have fun!
Couple questions: is the flax meal a must? could i leave it out or is there a substitute? also, this is a treat type recipe correct? seems like a lot of dairy and I’m just hoping to find the grass-fed versions of it! thanks!
Yes, this is definitely a treat meal. I love cheesecake, but only indulge in something like this occasionally.
The flaxseed meal helps the crust hold together a bit, but I bet it will be just fine without it. You can also try subbing it for ground chia seeds (just use a coffee grinder to grind the seeds).
Let us know how it turns out!
