No Bake Light & Creamy Cheesecake – from Luminaria
8 oz cream cheese (6 gr.)
1/2 cup sugar (equiv. in favourite sugar substitute) (.861 per packet
of
nutrasweet, I use 4 = 3.44 gr.)
8 oz sour cream (9.8 gr.)
2 teaspoons vanilla (1.06 gr.)
1 cup plain (liquid) heavy whipping cream (6.6 gr.)
Several fresh strawberries (4 berries = 2 gr.) (.5 carbs each) 28.9
grams total
Makes six servings, 4.82 grams each (Grams calculated from USDA list)
You let the block of cream cheese sit on the counter for a while, so
it warms up a bit, and is soft, then whip up
the whipping cream (yield, approx. two cups, whipped)
Slice strawberries and set aside on a paper towel to drain (if you slice them first, and drain them on a paper towel, they don't "bleed" the top of the pie pink)
Beat cream cheese until smooth. Gradually beat in *sugar* substitute, blend in sour cream and vanilla. Fold in whipped topping, blending well. Spoon into pie plate. Place strawberries on top, artistically.
Cover, chill until set, 2 - 4 hours (or until after dinner)
