- Whip your heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form, gently fold into your cream cheese mixture until creamy and smooth. Place mixture in the freezer to chill.
- Cut your egg white wraps in half, then in half again until you have 4 roughly equal sized pieces. Preheat your oven to 350°F. In a muffin tin, take one piece of the the wrap, then spray it with baking spray or cooking spray. Overlap with a second piece, then spray again. You may need to adjust the pieces slightly form a “cup” shape. Sprinkle with a bit of “gingerbread dust” if you want, then bake for 15-20 minutes until the wraps seal together.
- After baking, spray with baking spray on the outside of the egg white cups, then roll in the gingerbread dust (optional). Using a cookie scoop or spoon, place the gingerbread keto cheesecake fluff batter into the cups. You will have enough of the cheesecake fluff to fill 12-16 cups, depending on how full you like them.
