How to Make Healthy Protein Cheese Cake Dessert

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Add 16 ounces (450g) of cottage cheese to a blender or food processor.
  3. Blend on high speed for 30 seconds until smooth.
  4. Add 8 ounces (225g) of softened cream cheese and blend for another 30 seconds on high.
  5. Scrape down the sides of the blender. Add 1/4 cup of Splenda (or your preferred sugar substitute) and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
  6. Blend on medium speed while gradually adding 2 large eggs over 45 seconds. Blend until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
  7. Pour the cheese filling into your prepared pie crust (9-inch).
  8. Bake for 30 minutes, or until the center is just set.
  9. Let cool completely on a wire rack for at least 30 minutes.
  10. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the cheesecake to set completely.
  11. Serve chilled, plain, or topped with your favorite berries and sugar-free whipped topping.
