Hi everyone!
Today I am sharing with you a recipe for low fat no bake cheesecake. I came across this easy and tasty recipe while prowling a board on Pinterest. I really liked the idea and decided to try it. I would like to give a credit for the original recipe to www.gimmesomeoven.com. The blog post on the recipe there is interesting and helpful.
Here is the recipe, which I changed a little to suit my taste:
It makes 6 small no bake cheesecakes in individual cups.

Light No Bake Cheesecake
Ingredients
- Graham Cracker Crust
- 2/3 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 2 tbsp melted coconut oil
- No Bake Cheesecake
- 2 8 oz (225gr) packs low fat cream cheese
- 1 cup low fat yogurt — (must be strained, so the cheesecake doesn't get too watery)
- 1/4 cup Agave Sweetener — (can use 1/4 cup honey)
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 tbsp vanilla extract
- pinch of salt
Instructions
-
To Make Graham Cracker Crust:
-
Stir together Graham Cracker crumbs with coconut butter until combined. Add 2 tablespoons of crust to each serving dish and pack down.
-
To Make The Cheesecake:
-
You can mix all ingredients together in a bowl by hand or use a food processor. I used my food processor. Blend them well and scoop mixture into each container over the crust. The amount of mixture you'll use depends on the size of container you have.
-
Refrigerate for 2 hours until firm. You can serve it with your favorite topping or plain.
-
Original recipe suggests to use low fat vanilla strained yogurt. The yogurt I used was Fage 0% fat plain and I just added 1 teaspoon vanilla extract to it. It was pretty thick and the cheesecake I made set up easily in less than 2 hours.

This recipe is great for any party and especially for Valentine's Day.
