The nutty flavor of Amaretto pairs well with creamy chocolate. Savor these flavors in a delicious dessert. Ingredients:
6 chocolate wafers (about 1 1/2 ounces) |
cooking spray |
1 cup sugar |
1 cup 1% low-fat cottage cheese |
1/2 cup (4 ounces) block-style fat-free cream cheese |
6 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa |
1/4 cup all-purpose flour |
1/4 cup amaretto (almond-flavored liqueur) |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1 (8-ounce) block 1/3-less-fat cream cheese |
1 large egg |
2 tablespoons semisweet chocolate minichips |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 300°.
2. Place wafers in a food processor, and pulse until coarsely ground. Sprinkle crumbs into bottom of an 8-inch springform pan coated with cooking spray.
3. Place sugar and next 8 ingredients (sugar through cream cheese) in a food processor, and process until smooth. Add egg, and process until blended. Pour the cheese mixture into prepared pan, and sprinkle with minichips. Bake at 300° for 55 minutes or until the cheesecake center barely moves when pan is touched. Remove cheesecake from oven, and run a knife around outside edge. Cool to room temperature. Cover and chill at least 8 hours.
