How to Make Almost Fat Free Cheesecake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Lightly spray a 9-inch springform pan with cooking spray. Crush 1 ½ cups graham crackers into crumbs and sprinkle evenly over the bottom of the pan.
  3. In a large bowl, beat together 16 ounces (2 packages) of cream cheese, ¾ cup sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 4 large egg whites with an electric mixer on low speed until smooth and creamy.
  4. Pour the filling into the prepared pan. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the center is almost set and the edges are lightly golden brown.
  5. Remove from oven and let cool completely on a wire rack.
  6. In a medium mixing bowl, combine 8 ounces of sour cream, ¼ cup sugar, and ½ teaspoon vanilla extract. Mix thoroughly until smooth.
  7. Gently spread the sour cream mixture evenly over the cooled cheesecake.
  8. Return to the oven for 5-7 minutes, or until the topping is lightly set and slightly golden.
  9. Let the cheesecake cool completely, then chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, before serving.
