WHAT INGREDIENTS DO I USE TO MAKE THIS WEIGHT WATCHERS CHEESECAKE?
1: I USED NON-FAT GREEK YOGURT:
Non-fat Greek yogurt is the main ingredient for this cheesecake.
2: I USED SUGAR-FREE PUDDING:
Here is the secret, The sugar-free pudding is used as a thickening agent and gives these low point cheesecake flavorings.
3: THE EGGS:
These weight watchers’ cheesecakes rely on eggs for their thickening power.
4: MY FAVORITE SWEETENER:
For this recipe, I used Lakanto Monkfuit Sweetener to sweeten the cheesecake. This is my favorite sugar substitute.

Ingredients
- 3 large eggs or 3/4 cup liquid egg substitute
- 3 cups nonfat plain Greek yogurt or nonfat plain yogurt ( for thicker slices use 5 cups)
- We’ll need a small box of instant sugar-free/fat-free cheesecake or vanilla pudding.

- We’ll need 3 Tbsp. white granulated sugar substitute ( I used LAKANTO MONKFRUIT CLASSIC SWEETENER )
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a mixing bowl add eggs, sugar substitute and extract & mix well using a wire whisk.
- Mix well yogurt and dry pudding.
- Lightly brush a 9-inch pie plate with non-stick cooking spray.
- Cook it for 30 minutes, once it’s chilled, it will set.
- Then let it cool for 15-20 min before covering it with plastic wrap.
Notes
- Mix the cheesecake by hand, not a blender, to keep the yogurt nice and thick.
- You can choose between substitute regular instant pudding mix for the sugar-free pudding mix. The servings and points: 10 servings with 2 points per serving.
- It can take up to 12 hours for the texture and flavor to completely set in. The longer it chills the better it tastes.
- Chill in the refrigerator overnight in the springform pan.
- Cover with a paper towel and then plastic wrap to help absorb moisture for up to a week.
- Freeze for up to a month in an airtight container
- Toppings are extra points.
- If you make 8 slices; each slice is technically 1/2 point on the BLUE and PURPLE plan. The WW app will at times round it up to 1 smart point and other times the app will round it down to 0 freestyle smart point. You can choose to track the points of how you see fit.
