Light And Luscious Strawberry Cheesecake Recipes

LIGHT AND LUSCIOUS CHEESECAKE SOUFFLé

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Puree the cottage cheese until there are no lumps. Add Splenda to taste, egg yolk, vanilla and a dash of cinnamon.
• In a separate bowl whip egg whites to soft peaks. Add a dash of cream of tartar to stabilize if needed.
• Gently fold the egg whites into the cottage cheese mix.
• Pour into 2 ramekins until it just below the lip to allow for rising. Place ramekins into a larger baking pan and fill with boiling water until the water comes two-thirds up the sides of the ramekins. (I use a loaf pan.).
• Bake souffles for 28-30 minutes until golden brown on top.
• Mix the fruit spread and water together. Add strawberries and mix.
• Serve warm souffles with berries spooned on top.

STRAWBERRY LEMONADE CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease an 8-inch springform pan.
• Combine graham cracker crumbs, 1/2 cup melted butter, and 1/3 cup white sugar in a bowl until well mixed; press into the prepared springform pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until crust is lightly browned, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Beat cream cheese and ricotta cheese together in a bowl using an electric mixer on medium speed until creamy and smooth, about 3 minutes. Add 1 1/2 cup white sugar; beat on low speed until well blended, about 2 minutes.
• Stir 1/2 cup melted butter, cornstarch, flour, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract into cream cheese mixture until combined. Gently stir eggs, 1 at a time, into mixture; fold in sour cream just until batter is mixed. Pour batter over the crust. Pour strawberry pie filling over the batter. Gently swirl strawberry pie filling into batter using a butter knife just enough to form a swirl pattern on the top.
• Bake in the preheated oven without opening the door for 1 hour 15 minutes. Turn off oven and leave cheesecake in the oven for 1 hour more.
• Remove cheesecake form oven and cool on a wire rack for 2 hours. Cover and refrigerate cheesecake, 6 hours to overnight. Remove springform and slice.
