Best 8 Minute Low Fat Cheesecake Recipes

8 MINUTE CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• Beat cream cheese until smooth.
• Gradually beat in sugar.
• Blend in sour cream and vanilla.
• Fold in whipped topping; blend well.
• Spoon into crust.
• Chill until set; at least 4 hours.
• Garnish with your favorite topping or eat plain.
• (I top with fresh strawberries).

LOW-FAT CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Wrap the outside of a 9-inch springform pan with foil to prevent leaks. Coat the inside of the pan with cooking spray.
• Pulse the graham crackers in a food processor until crumbled. Add 1 to 2 tablespoons water and the butter; pulse until moistened. Press the crumbs onto the bottom of the prepared pan. Bake until browned, about 8 minutes. Let cool, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, beat both cream cheeses and the sugar with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until smooth, about 5 minutes. Beat in the sour cream on low. Lightly whisk the 3 egg whites in a bowl, then add to the cheese mixture along with the 2 whole eggs, flour, vanilla and lemon zest. Beat on medium speed until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Pour over the crust.
• Place the cheesecake in a roasting pan and add enough warm water to come one-quarter of the way up the sides of the springform. Bake until the cake is set but the center still jiggles, about 1 hour 10 minutes. Turn off the oven; keep the cheesecake inside with the door closed for 20 minutes.
• Remove the cake from the water bath and transfer to a rack. Run a knife around the edge, then cool completely. Chill until firm, at least 8 hours. Top as desired.

DELICIOUS LITE CHEESECAKE (COOKING LIGHT)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
• Coat a 9-inch springform pan with cooking spray (coat well!).
• Combine crumbs, 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar, and melted margarine, then firmly press crumb mixture into bottom of pan.
• Combine 2/3 cup sugar, flour, cornstarch, vanilla, light cream cheese, and fat free cream cheese in a large bowl and beat at high speed of a mixer until smooth.
• Add milk and sour cream to cheese mixture, then beat until smooth.
• Beat egg whites at high speed of a mixer until soft peaks form.
• Clean and dry beaters, then add sugar to egg whites, a tablespoon at a time, until all sugar is incorperated and peaks form again.
• Gently fold egg white mixture into cheese mixture.
• Pour into prepared pan. Bake for 55-60 minutes or until almost set (a few inches in the middle will still jiggle lightly, and the edges will have started to pull away from the sides of the pan).
• Remove from oven, and run a dull knife around the edge of the cheesecake to seperate it from the side of the pan (helps prevent cracking).
• Cool completely on a wire rack, then cover and chill overnight. Enjoy the NEXT DAY!
