Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 225 grams Low-fat cream cheese
- 150 grams Low-fat Greek yogurt
- 40 grams Butterscotch pudding mix (sugar-free)
- 240 milliliters Low-fat milk
- 150 grams Digestive biscuits (low-fat)
- 40 grams Unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Gelatin powder (unflavored)
- 2 tablespoons Water (hot)
- 3 tablespoons Butterscotch chips (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Crush the digestive biscuits into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a sealed bag and crushing with a rolling pin.
Mix the biscuit crumbs with the melted butter until evenly combined.
Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of a 20 cm (8-inch) springform pan to form the cheesecake base. Refrigerate for 10 minutes to set.
In a small bowl, dissolve the gelatin powder in hot water and let it cool slightly.
Using an electric mixer, beat the low-fat cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the butterscotch pudding mix and low-fat milk until smooth. Let it sit for 2-3 minutes to thicken.
Blend the cream cheese, yogurt, and vanilla extract into the thickened pudding mix until smooth.
Stir in the slightly cooled gelatin mixture, ensuring it's well incorporated.
Pour the cheesecake filling over the chilled biscuit base and smooth the top with a spatula.
Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours, or until fully set.
Optionally, garnish the top with a sprinkle of butterscotch chips before serving.
Carefully remove the cheesecake from the springform pan, slice, and serve chilled.
