These little, frozen cheesecakes are a surefire crowd-pleaser, particularly when served with the peach puree. They're even great when made with a sugar substitute. âEva Wright of Grant, Alabama Ingredients:
3/4 cup ground almonds |
1 tablespoon butter, melted |
1 envelope unflavored gelatin |
1/4 cup cold water |
12 ounces reduced-fat cream cheese |
1/3 cup sugar |
3/4 cup fat-free milk |
1/4 teaspoon almond extract |
peach sauce: |
3 cups sliced peeled peaches |
2 tablespoons sugar |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, combine almonds and butter. Press onto the bottom of 12 paper- or foil-lined muffin cups. Cover and freeze for 10 minutes. 2. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, sprinkle gelatin over cold water; let stand for 1 minute. Cook over low heat, stirring until gelatin is completely dissolved; set aside. 3. In a small bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Gradually beat in milk and extract. Stir in gelatin mixture. Spoon into muffin cups; freeze until firm. 4. Remove desserts from the freezer 10 minutes before serving. Place the sauce ingredients in a blender; cover and process until pureed. Spoon onto dessert plates. Peel liners off desserts; invert onto peach sauce. Yield: 12 servings. |
