Categories     Cheesecake

Time 1h25m

Yield 1 cheesecake, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 cups plain fat-free yogurt
8 ounces fat free cream cheese
1/2 cup sugar substitute (I use Splenda)
1 (1 ounce) package sugar free fat free instant pudding mix (cheesecake flavor)

Steps:

  • 24 hours in advance, you are going to need to make the yogurt into yocheese. Do this by placing a large strainer in a bowl. Line the strainer with a few layers of paper towels, and pour in the yogurt. Cover with plastic wrap and place in refrigerator. This will allow the whey to drain from the yogurt, making the consistency much more firm.
  • After 24 hours has passed, you can begin by whipping the cream cheese in a large bowl.
  • Stir in the sugar substitute.
  • Add in the instant pudding, and mix well.
  • Stir out the lumps either by hand or place in blender. It is important that all lump are out and batter is smooth.
  • Pour in pie crust and refrigerate for an hour or until firm.

Categories     Cheesecake

Time 1h5m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 (8 ounce) packages light cream cheese (not fat free)
1/2 cup Splenda granular
2/3 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 eggs
1/2 cup canned pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling which contains sugar)
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon apple pie spice
whipped cream (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325°F.
  • In large bowl combine softened cream cheese, Splenda, and vanilla. Beat with electric mixer until smooth. Blend in eggs, one at a time.
  • Remove one cup of batter and spread into bottom of glass or crockery baking dish which has been sprayed very lightly with non-stick spray.
  • Add pumpkin and spices to remaining batter and stir until blended.
  • Carefully spread pumpkin layer over first layer.
  • Bake in preheated oven 35-45 minutes or until center is almost set.
  • Allow to cool, then chill several hours or overnight.
  • Serve with whipped cream if desired and wait for compliments.
  • I used a 10" by 8" glass baking dish to cook this. Next time I think I would double the recipe and only increase to a 9" by 13" baking dish to make a thicker cheese cake. This would show of the layers better. Some cinnamon dusted on the top would have been a nice touch.

" SPLENDA " D CHEESECAKE SUGAR-FREE LOW-CARB



This is my own recipe for a yummy, creamy, thick, cheesecake; that is easy to make and sure to dazzle anyone. I prefer to serve it topped with blackberries, but you can use any fruit of your choice... I bet Kiwi with lime would be good too, Mmmm mabe I'll go make another. To be completely honest, I opt not to dig out my spring form pan and cheat by buying ready made crust from the store. Although, I have included ingredients and instructions for a crust for those who are looking for a completely home made cake. However, if you are as lazy as I am and go with the ready made crust ... Tip: Keep that aluminum edge (that keeps the clear plastic lid on) folded up, making an extra lip. It will help hold more cheesecake, and keep it from overflowing. This is a nice, thick cheesecake! This cheesecake is made in three parts 1. Crust, 2. Filling (note: filling is made in two stages whipped cream and filling), and 3. Topping (note: this topping is not the fruit topping, but the top layer of the cheesecake).

Categories     Cheesecake

Time 1h45m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs

1/4 cup Splenda sugar substitute
16 ounces reduced-fat cream cheese, softened
8 ounces fat free cream cheese, softened
28 (1 g) packets Equal sugar substitute or 28 (1 g) packets Splenda sugar substitute
2 eggs
2 egg whites
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 cup reduced-fat sour cream
1 -2 teaspoon lemon extract
1/2 cup key lime juice (or a little less, depending on how you like it!)

Steps:

  • Melt butter; mix graham cracker crumbs, butter, and ¼ cup splenda and press into bottom of 8-inch springform pan (spray bottom of pan with Pam first). If desired, reserve 1 tablespoon of crumb mixture to sprinkle on top of cake when baking is completed.
  • Beat cream cheese and 28 packets of Equal in a large bowl until fluffy; beat in eggs, egg whites and cornstarch. Mix in sour cream, lime juice and extract until well blended. Spray sides of pan with Pan; pour mixture onto crust in pan.
  • Bake in preheated 325 degree F oven 50 minutes or just until set in the center. If desired, sprinkle with reserved crumbs. Turn oven off and leave cake in oven or on counter for 1-2 hours to gradually cool. Remove outer walls of the pan and refrigerate. Chill well (several hours or overnight) before serving.
  • OR... Line a 9x13 glass pan with parchment paper and spray the paper and sides of the pan with Pam. Bake 30-35 minutes, cool and slice into bite-sized cheesecake treats! In either case, bake the cheesecake with a water bath in the oven along with it to help keep the cheesecake extra moist. All you have to do is put a separate pan with some water in it in the oven, which will boil on it's own and keep the oven nice and steamy-moist!

LOW SUGAR COCONUT-ALMOND PIE CRUST OR CHEESECAKE CRUST



Low Sugar Coconut-Almond Pie Crust or Cheesecake Crust image

I put this together so my husband could make his favorite key lime pie but still be a "little" healthy. We enjoy collaborating on recipes! He is quite the cook in his own right. Almond meal is finely ground. You can make your own by pulsing in a food processor but be careful not to make almond butter out of it, which can happen if it is processed for too long. Same with the coconut, although I buy mine ready made. Just make sure it is unsweetened coconut or the recipe will be off. Pulse it in the food processor until it is like tiny crumbs. For unsweetened coconut you can also try making that from a fresh coconut if you can't find unsweetened coconut at the market. Enjoy!

Time 3h50m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, at room temperature
⅔ cup sucralose sugar substitute (such as Splenda® Granulated)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 eggs, room temperature
1 cup sliced fresh strawberries

Steps:

  • Grease the inside of a springform pan. Place a rack in the bottom of a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and add 1 inch of water.
  • Blend cream cheese in a bowl using an electric mixer until completely smooth with no lumps. Add sugar substitute and vanilla extract. Blend until just incorporated. Add eggs 1 at a time and blend until completely mixed in, but do not overbeat.
  • Pour batter in the prepared springform pan. Cover bottom and sides of pan tightly with a single piece of aluminum foil to prevent water from leaking into the pan.
  • Lower the filled springform pan onto the rack in the pressure cooker pot. Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 20 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
  • Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, 10 to 40 minutes. Remove the lid and allow cheesecake to slightly cool inside the pressure cooker, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the cheesecake carefully and allow to cool completely, about 30 minutes more. Remove aluminum foil; cover cheesecake with plastic wrap and refrigerate until chilled, 2 hours to overnight.
  • Dice strawberries and sprinkle over cheesecake just before serving.
