Sugar Free Cheesecake!!!!

I don't know about ya'll, but I love cheesecake.  So I hunted around and found a great sugarfree cheesecake recipe in an Atkins cookbook.  I made it for our dessert on Father's Day and everyone loved it.  The only real difference that anyone noticed was that it is not as sweet as regular cheesecake, but that made it better to me.  Also, the recipe doesn't call for any crust, but I made one that is low carb by crushing up pecans, walnuts, a couple low fat graham crackers, cinnamon, butter spray, and a couple packets of sweet n low in the food processor.  I didn't measure these ingredients so I can't tell you the nutritional info on it, but it did add protein (because of the nuts).  It didn't taste any different than a regular graham cracker crust to me.  After I mixed it all together in the food processor I just pressed into the bottom of the 9-inch spring form pan and baked it 350 degrees for 10 minutes. Here's the cheesecake recipe: 16 oz. light cream cheese at room temperature (could try 8oz. of fat free and 8 oz. of light) 3 eggs 1 cup light sour cream  (could try 1/2 c. light and 1/2 c. fat free) 1/2 of a vanilla bean, scraped 12 packets of sugar substitute Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place all ingredients in a blender and blend for 15 minutes.  Pour mixture into a 9-inch springform pan.  Place in a pan of ho****er in the oven.  If water evaporates during baking, add more ho****er as needed.  Bake for 1 hour, turn oven off and leave cake in oven for 1 hour.  Then refrigerate.  If you cut it into 12 servings, each serving has 139 calories, 10.5 g of fat, 4.4 g carbs, and 7 g. of protein (without the crust or strawberries). I also made macerated strawberries for a topping.  I sliced strawberries and mixed them with about 2 tablespoons of really good balsamic vinegar and a couple packs of sweet n low.  Let is sit at room temperature for a couple hours.  Then refrigerate and use as a topping for your cheesecake.  It's also really good over sugar freee angel food cake with sugar free Cool Whip. Enjoy, everyone! ~Robin

Awesome thanks for sharing Robin!! I love cheesecake.   I will definitely have to try this one.   Anna

Sounbds good. Here is my favorite (I posted it a while back, but here goes...........) I use silicon muffin liners to ensure that I get all of the "good stuff".  But, if you do not have that, you will need to use the paper liners (which means that you will lose some of it). 2 - 8 oz packages of reduced fat cream cheese 1/2 cup Splenda 1tsp vanilla 2 eggs 12 Murray's sugar free vanilla wafers

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Place a paper cupcake liner in each cup of muffin pan. Beat cream cheese with a handheld electric mixer until fluffy. Add sugar and vanilla, beating well. Add eggs, 1at a time, beating well after each addition. Lay a vanilla wafer, flat side down, in each muffin cup. Spoon cream cheese mixture over wafers. Bake for 20 minutes. Allow tarts to cool completely. Serve with cherry filling on top, or pie filling of your choice.

Blueberry Sauce: 1/2 cup Spleda/2 cups blueberries/ 1/2 tsp lemon. Make sauce. Place all sauce ingredients in a medium saucepan. Heat over medium heat and simmer until soft. Puree mixture in a blender or food processor until smooth.

Serve Cakes by pouring sauce onto individual serving dishes. Place warm cakes on top of the sauce. Garnish with a few fresh blueberries.

Per Serving (1 tart without sauce): 41 Cal (69% from Fat, 25% from Protein, 6% from Carb); 2 g Protein; 2 g Tot Fat; 1 g Sat Fat; 1 g Mono Fat; 0 g Carb; 0 g Fiber; 0 g Sugar; 10 mg Calcium; 0 mg Iron; 28 mg Sodium; 44 mg Cholesterol Also, Smuckers has a sugar free carmel sauce that is pretty good. 

Thanks Robin, I love cheesecake. My 4 years wedding anniversary is next week. I can make for me and my husband. Mo

Congrats on your upcoming anniversary!  I'm glad you are feeling better today!  Enjoy the cheesecake!  The best part about it was that I only ate about 4 small bites and that was enough to satisfy me.  Before I could have eaten an entire cake without blinking an eye.  LOL! ~Robin
