and lately, I had tried making a cheesecake again, based on a low fat cheesecake recipe from Wendy's Delight recipe book. I am still quite skeptical as to how desserts can really be low fat if you want it to be delicious. I always tot that "sinful" and "desserts" always come as a pair.
ok. side aside this argument for the time being. Most of the ingredients are quite simple and can be found at home, but most prob u will nd to specially get the cream cheese, sour cream, yogurt and whipping cream specially for this recipe. and here is the a look at the end product. the cheese part is very fluffy and light. So, my verdict is that even though this dessert may not exactly be totally 'low-fat', it can be classified as much 'reduced fat' version.
and here's the recipe:
Ingredients:
100g digestive biscuits (as base- you may use oreo biscuits instead, if you love it sweet)
50g melted butter (I used margarine)
200g cream cheese
20g sugar
80g sour cream
70g yogurt
50g whipping cream (I use whipped cream)
40g egg white
20g sugar
Steps:
1. Crush biscuits. Mix biscuits with melted butter. Press the mixture onto the bottom of a cake tin.
2. Beat cream cheese and sugar until fluffy. Pour in sour cream and yogurt. Mix well and fold in whipping cream.
3. Beat egg white and sugar at medium speed until soft peaks form. Pour in cheese mixture and mix well.
4. Pour the mixture into cake tin over the biscuit base. Bake in water bath at 150ºC for 50-60 minutes. (Water bath refers to using a larger pan containing water in which to place the smaller cheesecake baking pan. This is to prevent surface cracking. But as i flipped the cheesecake upside down to try to get it out of the pan, the surface got ruined.)
