Old Fashioned Cheesecake (FIGURE-FRIENDLY)

Serving Size: 8 servings

Lite and fluffy - this old fashion cheesecake is lower in fat and calories than traditional cheesecake and makes a fabulous finale to any festive moment!

Ingredients

Crust:

  • 1 3/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/3 cup butter
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 1/3 teaspoon ground cinnamon


Alternate Crust:

  • 1 1/2 cup ground (food processor) ginger snap cookies (about 33 thin cookies)
  • 3 tablespoons apricot jam melted


Filling:

  • 2 cups 1% Friendship® Lowfat Cottage Cheese
  • 2 (8oz) low fat packages of cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 4 eggs
  • 1/2 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 tablespoon lemon zest (grind)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour

  1. Preheat oven to 325º F. Combine chosen crust elements and press mixture evenly over the bottom and slightly up the sides of a 10-in. spring form pan.
  2. In a food processor, puree 1% Friendship® Lowfat Cottage Cheese; set aside.
  3. In a mixing bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in lemon juice and lemon zest, vanilla, flour, Friendship® Light Sour Cream and pureed cottage cheese just until evenly mixed.
  4. Pour into pan. Bake at 325ºF in the center of the oven for 60-70 minutes or until filling just set.
