After much trial and error, this cheesecake recipe is perfect!
Several weeks ago, my wife Christine and I did a couple of YouTube videos highlighting a brand new product called True Lemon who are sponsors of my "Livin' La Vida Low-Carb" blog right now. In one of the videos, we shared a very simple and quick recipe for making a lemon, lime or orange cheesecake. It was pretty basic with the cream cheese, True Lemon products, and Splenda.
But ever since we recorded that video, everybody and their momma has been wanting to know more about the recipe. So I started tinkering with the on-the-fly recipe that we did for that video and played around in the kitchen to see how I could make this even better. After a few weeks of doing this, I think I've finally done it! And the proof in how good it is happened on Friday night when I took two cheesecakes to a social gathering at my church (which I shared briefly about at my new menus blog for February 1, 2008).
Look at how gorgeous this beauty turned out:
