HOW TO MAKE THIS LEMON CHEESECAKE?

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

2. In a mixing bowl add eggs, extract, lemon juice, and a sugar substitute.

3. Add yogurt and dry pudding, and mix well using a wire whisk.

4. Pour into a lightly greased non-stick cooking spray pie dish or SPRINGFORM PAN. I use a 9-inch SPRINGFORM PAN.

5. Bake for 30 minutes.

6. Let it cool for about 15-20 minutes before covering it with plastic wrap.

7. Let it chill overnight in the refrigerator.

Lemon Cheesecake Ingredients

INGREDIENTS:

3 large eggs or 3/4 cup liquid egg substitute
3 cups nonfat plain Greek yogurt ( I recommend using Chobani or Fage)
1 small box of instant JELL-O SUGAR-FREE/FAT-FREE LEMON, or vanilla pudding
3 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
3 Tbsp zero-point white granulated sugar substitute ( I prefer LAKANTO) I recommend a granulated sugar substitute, if the sugar substitute is not granulated it tends to give a gritty texture to the cheesecake
1/4 tsp lemon extract (optional)

DIRECTIONS:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
In a mixing bowl add eggs, extract, lemon juice, and a sugar substitute.
Add yogurt and dry pudding, and mix well using a wire whisk.
Pour into a lightly greased non-stick cooking spray pie dish or SPRINGFORM PAN. I use a 9-inch SPRINGFORM PAN.
Bake for 30 minutes.
Let it cool for about 15-20 minutes before covering it with plastic wrap.
Let it chill overnight in the refrigerator.

NOTES:

It may look jiggly but once it’s chilled, it will set. Let it cool for about 15-20 min before covering it with plastic wrap and letting it chill overnight in the refrigerator.
It’s recommended to chill overnight before eating.
It’s needing 12 hours for the texture and flavor to completely set in.
I prefer to mix the ingredients by hand using a hand whisk. That way the yogurt stays nice and thick.
I recommend using a thick non-fat Greek yogurt such as Chobani or Fage. There is a big difference in how the cheesecake sets when you use a thicker yogurt.
You can substitute regular instant pudding mix for the sugar-free pudding mix. That substitution would increase the point value by 2 SmartPoints per serving.
If you make 8 slices each slice is technically 1/2 Smartpoint on the BLUE and PURPLE plan. The Weight Watchers app will at times round it up to 1 Point and other times the app will round it down to Zero points. So you can choose to track the points as you see fit.
