I love all kinds of cheesecakes. It would be hard for me to pick out a favorite. There are so many different flavors, additions you can add, and they all pair so well with the creamy cream cheese filling. There are quite a number of cheesecake recipes on my blog. Use this link…Recipes to see if there are any kinds you would love to try.

I have found that a cheesecake baked at a lower temperature of 300 degrees F. creates a moist creamy cheesecake. After I turn the oven off I crack the the oven door open just a bit with the cheesecake still in it. The heat will finish the baking the center and the cheesecake will not crack. Remove the cheesecake after it has cooled for 1 hour.

I have found that cheesecakes are one of the dessert you can create sugar-free and it taste just like a sugar-filled one. Trim Healthy Mama Gentle Sweet is the best sugar-free sweetener that I have found. If you are wanting to try sugar-free, use this sweetener, you will not be disappointed.

Mixing the crust:

Crust: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a mixer bowl, mix the crust ingredients until crumbly. Press on the bottom of a 9-inch cheesecake pan.

Bake the crust for 10-12 minutes.

Blend the cottage cheese and pumpkin puree together until smooth.

In a mixer bowl, mix cream cheese and blended mixer together until smooth. Add sweetener, Vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt. Mix well. Add eggs one at a time, mixing lightly between each addition. Stir in chocolate chips. Pour cheesecake batter over the crust and smooth.

Reduce the oven temperature to 300 degrees. Place a pan of water on the bottom rack of the oven. Place the cheesecake directly above the pan of water. Bake for 50-55 minutes.

Turn oven off and crack the door open. Cool for 1 hour in the oven then remove the cheesecake.

This smooth creamy cheesecake had a secret ingredient, cottage cheese. Cottage cheese when blended smooth can be used to replace cream cheese. It is best to blend the cottage cheese smooth before mixing it into the cheesecake batter. This will add more protein and less fat to the cheesecake.
