How to Make No Bake Strawberry Cheesecake Tarts Light

  1. Line a fine-mesh sieve or colander with cheesecloth or a coffee filter. Place 2 cups of plain non-fat Greek yogurt in the sieve and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to drain excess whey.
  2. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly brush 6 mini tart shells with egg white. Bake for 5 minutes. Let cool completely on a wire rack.
  3. In a blender, combine 16 ounces (2 cups) of cottage cheese, 1 ½ cups drained yogurt, ½ cup sweetener (honey, maple syrup, or sugar substitute), 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and ¼ teaspoon cinnamon. Blend until completely smooth and creamy.
  4. Evenly divide the cheesecake mixture among the cooled tart shells. Refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours, or until set.
  5. Gently warm ¼ cup of your favorite strawberry fruit spread (or jam) in a microwave-safe bowl for 10-15 seconds until slightly softened.
  6. In a small bowl, gently combine the warmed fruit spread with 1 cup sliced fresh strawberries. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
  7. Before serving, spoon the strawberry mixture over the set cheesecake tarts. Garnish with extra fresh strawberries (optional). Enjoy!
