Low Carb "No Bake" Cheesecake (IF*)

This is my first video in 2007, and I return to the kitchen in making my favorite new dessert, a low carb non-bake cheesecake. This cheesecake is better than any no-bake cheesecake mix that you would buy in the store. You have to try this one.

Recipe: (courtesy of Linda's Low Carb)

CREAMY NO-BAKE CHEESECAKE
1 packet unflavored gelatin
3/4 cup vanilla flavored sugar free syrup
24 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 cup heavy cream, whipped
"Graham Cracker" Pie Crust *

Prepare crust according to recipe for baked crust. In a small pot, sprinkle gelatin over 1/2 cup syrup and let soften 5 minutes. Heat and stir over low heat to dissolve gelatin completely. Beat cream cheese with remaining 1/4 cup syrup until creamy. Gradually beat in gelatin mixture. Chill until slightly thickened, about 1 hour, gently whisking occasionally to prevent lumps. Fold in whipped cream. Pour into crust and chill until set. Mine looked set after 2 hours, but I recommend chilling at least 6 hours.

Makes 12 servings
Freezing not recommended

Per Serving: 368 Calories; 37g Fat; 7g Protein; 4g Carbohydrate; 1g Dietary Fiber; 3g Net Carbs

"GRAHAM CRACKER" PIE CRUST
3 ounces almond flour, 3/4 cup
3 tablespoons flax meal
1/4 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons butter, melted
1/3 cup granular Splenda or equivalent liquid Splenda

Mix dry ingredients in a small bowl. Add Splenda to melted butter; pour over dry ingredients. Mix well and spread in 9" pie plate or springform pan. Bake at 375º about 10-12 minutes until set and lightly browned. Cool, then fill pie. For baked pies, chill unbaked crust 1 hour before filling and baking.

Thank you for watching another one of my videos, and I look forward to a productive 2007 year of low carb videos and blogs.

Hi, thanks so much for posting!!! - I was wondering if you had a video on portion sizes? New Zealand

[bowulf]

@37reformed Yes I do. Search on Youtube for the following video: "Atkins Diet Quick Hits: Portion Sizes or what does a cup look like?" Let me know if that is not what you meant.

I know this video is a little old school, but I just made this recipe for the first time and its AWESOME! Just a few questions; first is the crust safe for owl, second I used torani sf vanilla syrup (all I could find) and was really good; any difference from the davinci's and lastly is this recipe rated at 2g net carbs per slice with crust or without? Thanks again, your the man! oh yeah by the way, added cinnamon to the crust, perfect match! LOL

@chartii The 2g is just for the crust. The nutrition facts for the filling is:

Per Serving: 368 Calories; 37g Fat; 7g Protein; 4g Carbohydrate; 1g Dietary Fiber; 3g Net Carbs

Yes, the crust is fine for OWL. The only difference between the Davinci and Torani is the taste. Both are acceptable for Induction.

I am glad you liked the recipe, and the cinnamon is a good tip.

Kuchenrolle, that is only for the first two weeks. then you start taking in carbs. Atkins does not = no carbs that is only for the first two weeks then you move into a low carb diet. to maintain the weight lost. I know how Ketosis is acieved. Lived it all. have maintained my weight. Some people think you it is an all meat diet. Not true.

reply to cutekittee

"no bake cheesecake" means you don't bake the cheesecake..... has nothing to do with the crust; rather the cheesecake as a whole.

there is such a thing as a fully baked cheesecake!! the taste and texture is completely different!!
