Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 sheets Low-fat graham crackers
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 4 ounces Low-fat cream cheese
- 1 cup Nonfat plain Greek yogurt
- 3 tablespoons Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 ounces Dark chocolate (70% cocoa), melted
- 1 cup Fresh cranberries
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sweetener (like stevia or monk fruit)
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a food processor, pulse the graham crackers until they form fine crumbs. Add melted butter and cocoa powder, then pulse again until combined.
Press the crumb mixture evenly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch tart pan. Bake for 10 minutes, then let it cool completely.
In a mixing bowl, beat the low-fat cream cheese until smooth. Add Greek yogurt, maple syrup, and vanilla extract, and mix until well combined.
Fold in the melted dark chocolate until the filling is smooth and uniform in color.
Pour the chocolate filling into the cooled crust and spread evenly with a spatula. Chill the tart in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
While the tart is chilling, prepare the cranberry topping: In a small saucepan, add fresh cranberries, sweetener, cornstarch, and water. Cook over medium heat until the cranberries burst and the mixture thickens, about 5 minutes. Let the topping cool to room temperature.
Once the tart has set, spread the cranberry topping evenly over the chocolate filling.
Slice the tart into 8 pieces and serve chilled. Enjoy this guilt-free indulgence!
