Ingredients
24 plain chocolate wafer
1 cookies (half of a 9 ounce
1 box)
1 nonfat cooking spray
2 (8 ounce) packages fat-free
1 cream cheese
1 cup sugar
1 cup cocoa
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
3 tbsp sugar-free seedless black
1 raspberry preserves
1/2 cup fat free egg substitutes
1 (16 ounce) container
1 fat-free sour cream
1/4 tsp salt
Directions
For Fruit Topping:
1 (10 ounce) box sweetened frozen raspberries, thawed
2 Tablespoons cornstarch
In a food processor or blender, grind the plain chocolate wafers into
fine crumbs. Generously coat a 8.1/2 inch or 9 inch springform pan
with nonstick cooking spray. Pour the crumbs into the pan and tilt to
coat the bottom and the sides evenly. Set aside.
Preheat oven to 350^F. With an electric mixer, beat the fat-free cream
cheese until soft. Add the sugar, cocoa, vanilla extract and raspberry
preserves and continue beating until the ingredients are
incorporated. Add the egg substitutes, fat free sour cream and salt
and continue beating until no lumps remain and mixture is smooth and
liquid. You may have to beat the mixture for several minutes to reach
this consistency.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Place in oven and immediately
reduce oven temperature to 300 degrees. Bake for one hour, or until
center is set and firm to the touch. Turn off oven and allow
cheesecake to stay in cooling oven for one hour longer. Remove and
cool completely. Refrigerate overnight before serving.
To make the raspberry sauce, puree the raspberries in a food
processor or blender. Strain the pulp through a tea strainer,
pressing to remove all the seeds. Discard seeds. Place the cornstarch
in a saucepan and stir in the raspberry juice. Bring to a boil,
stirring constantly until thickened. Remove from heat immediately to
prevent lumps from forming. Cool and chill. Serve one tablespoon of
sauce on top of each slice of cheesecake.
Cake can also be frozen for two to three weeks before serving. To
serve, thaw for 2 days in the refrigerator, then allow to come to
room temperature before slicing.

Diet Low-Fat Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake Recipe brought to you by Diet Recipes To-Go
Diet typesThe Glycaemic Index Diet The gi (or glycaemic index) nutrition and weightloss system is linked to the glycaemic index, a chart showing foods and a score illustrating the rapidity with which the glucose of the food type gets converted to glucose in the dieters system. The claim is that slow acting food types (ie those foods with a low Glycaemic score), will keep you feeling full for longer and help you to cut down on food without being miserabl;e. It is also extremely useful for diabetes sufferers, as the low GI foods are beneficial in reducing rises in blood sugar levels. The South Beach Diet The South Beach diet is a diet plan invented by Cardiologist arthur agatston which encourages that one should eat "good carbs" instead of "bad carbohydrates" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats" Dr. agatston invented his dietary regime as an aid to patients with heart conditions, based on his analysis of scientific data on other weight loss studies. Good foods include, veal cutlets, turkey bacon, shrimp, fat free cheese, peanut butter, nonfat yoghurt and certain vegetables, like kidney beans, broccoli and spinach. The Atkins’ Diet First invented by doctor atkins in the 1960s, the atkins diet achieved most of its fame during the last decade. Although not accepted by all scientists, it claims to allow fat reduction whilst encouraging you to eat many foods that are not normally available to dieters, like meat and butter. With this diet you eat protein and fat, it is the carbs that are on the banned list. It is referred to as a high protein, low carb, diet. With this diet, the foods you should avoid are processed and refined sugar, milk, white bread, starchy vegetables, white rice and white flour, including cereals and pasta made from white flour. With the atkins diet the foods you are encouraged to eat are nutrient-rich unprocessed foods such as meat, fish and poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and, as a consequence, olive oil. |
