A WHOLE 9-inch cheesecake = 2,391 Calories

kiely13

So, cheesecake is definitely one of my weakness. I got a craving for it yesterday and today I decided I would make one myself.

I found a recipe. Woo... and made some changes.

The recipe had nutritional information and it would have came out to 533/serving with a total of 12 servings. This would total to 6,396 calories for the entire pie. (not that I would eat the whole thing...)

However, with the changes I got the total calories in the entire 9-inch pie to 2,391 calories.


Now, I just have to wait and see if it tastes just as good.

Wow! Let me know how this goes! I love being busy in the kitchen, and then being able to *guilt-free* eat my creations!
Add me!

Sounds pretty good. I am a big fan of cheesecake myself.

I found this one recipe on BB.com for only 834 calories in a whole 6" cheesecake. I've made it and it's delicious! (834 calories; 123g Protein, 63g Carbs, 10g Fat), there's no crust, but you can add one if you want to.

Just if you wanted to try it...

Lots of photos across 18 pages so far. It has a 2:1 ratio protein to carbs with almost no fat.

I ate these for a week straight last month to tweak the recipe just right.

I can vouch for the quality of this recipe. I've made 4 so far, and they were all delicious.

If you use a 9" springform pan, double the recipe, cook at 325 for 45 minutes, shut the oven off and leave the door closed for at least 2 hours.

Well... It turned out pretty good. A bit sweeter than I anticipated.

Here is the original recipe then any modifications I made.

Ingredients

15 graham crackers, crushed
2 tablespoons butter, melted (used Smart Balance 50/50 blend)

4 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese (1/3 less fat reduced - Philadelphia ... Would have used a fat free but they didn't have any at the store)
1 1/2 cups white sugar - Had I known how sweet it was going to be & just if I was thinking more I would have reduced the amount of sugar!
3/4 cup milk (Skim Milk)
4 eggs (Use 8 TBSP Egg Whites instead)
1 cup sour cream (Use 6 oz plain greek yogurt)
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9 inch springform pan.
In a medium bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs with melted butter. Press onto bottom of springform pan.
In a large bowl, mix cream cheese with sugar until smooth. Blend in milk, and then mix in the eggs one at a time, mixing just enough to incorporate. Mix in sour cream, vanilla and flour until smooth. Pour filling into prepared crust.
Bake in preheated oven for 1 hour. Turn the oven off, and let cake cool in oven with the door closed for 5 to 6 hours; this prevents cracking. Chill in refrigerator until serving.

*I let it bake for an hour then let it cool down for a bit... I didn't wait the 5 to 6 hours like it said then I put it in the freezer not the refrigerator.

I'll have to try out one of GP79's recipes!...

I was tempted to throw blueberries into it and make it a blueberry cheesecake... Blueberries are so tasty :-p

For those following their sodium intake, I haven't figured out the sodium values in Kiely13's cake yet, but here is what I came up with for the recipe above:

1114 total sodium as is and 674 without the kosher salt

Not too bad really, sodium wise, if you don't eat the whole cake, which for me is pretty hard with cheese cake! Hopefully, it won't lose too much taste without the salt added.
