How to Make High Protein No Guilt Skinny Cheesecake

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Grease and flour a 9-inch springform pan.
  3. In a high-speed blender, combine 24 oz (700g) cottage cheese, 4 large eggs, 8 oz (225g) sour cream, 4 scoops (approx. 4 oz or 115g) whey protein powder (vanilla or unflavored), 1 cup (200g) Splenda or your preferred sugar substitute, 1 tablespoon lemon zest, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Blend until completely smooth and creamy.
  4. Pour the batter into the prepared springform pan.
  5. Place the cheesecake on the top rack of the oven. Place a baking sheet filled with about 1 inch of hot water on the bottom rack (this creates a water bath for even baking).
  6. Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the cheesecake is set around the edges but still slightly jiggly in the center. Do not overbake!
  7. Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside with the door slightly ajar for another 30 minutes. This prevents cracking.
  8. Remove from the oven and let cool completely on a wire rack. Once cooled, refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, before serving.
