I really like cheese cake and only allow myself to make it once a month but my recipe is loaded in calories I’m sure. If anyone has a good recipe for low fat/calories cheese cake please share. Thanks!

  • LOW CALORIE CHEESECAKE TO LIVE FOR CRUST

    1 1/2 cups of finely crushed lowfat vanilla wafer crumb 1/4 cup of no-calorie refrigerated butter spray (you may add a bit more or less to get a workable crust as temperature, humidity & altitude affect differently) You can also opt to use a ready-made crust of your choice but be sure and count this calorie content as part of your recipe. If you use a ready-made crust, subtract 65 calories to delete the given crust, then add the calories of your ready-made crust and divide by 8 (8 servings).

    FILLING 2(8 oz) packages of fat-free cream cheese, softened Nutrasweet (add as much or as little as you like - you control the sweetness) 1 teaspoon of vanilla 1/2 carton of Egg-Beaters (or 2 eggs) Optional - you can experiment with additional lemon & lemon peel, strawberries, extracts such as almond, rum, brandy, mint. The possibilities are endless. lemon & lemon peel, strawberries, extracts such as almond, rum, brandy, mint. The possibilities are endless.

    DIRECTIONS - Mix crust ingredients and press into springform pan OR just use an ovenproof deep-dish pie plate. Next, mix filling, adding the eggs last until blended. Pour in your crust & bake for about 40 minutes (until the center is almost set). Refrigerate at least 3 hours before eating. Top with fruit, fat-free topping, drizzled jelly or a bit of toasted coconut. Serves 8.

    CALORIES = about 125 per slice! :)

    Enjoy
