Instructions
- Combine the cream cheese, almond flour, heavy cream, eggs, matcha powder, and vanilla in a large bowl. Mix thoroughly. Place mixture in springform pan, then loosely cover with aluminum foil.
- Pour 2 cups filtered water into Instant Pot, then add trivet, placing the springform pan atop the rack. Move the valve to Sealing and close the lid of the Instant Pot.
- Set to Manual/Pressure Cook, and let cook for 25 minutes at high pressure. Once cooked, let the pressure naturally disperse from the Instant Pot for about 10 minutes, then carefully switch the pressure release to Venting.

So your recipe calls for 1/2 cup sugar free chocolate chips but the instructions dont say to do anythjng with it. I went out and bought all the ingredients but have no idea where the chocolate goes. Kind of maddending and a waste of money. What gives?
Hi Jgrindrod ,
Thank you and our apologies.
We have updated the recipe. The recipe calls for a 7 inch spring form. If a recipe says use a spring form they are most likely referring to a 7inch unless stated otherwise.
I added 1/2 cup of sugar and used a basic crust. The family really liked it. Very creamy. We will make this one again.
