Thread: Weight Watchers Recipe: Strawberry Cheesecake Flan

If you love strawberries, then you will definitely love this. This is a guilt free dessert perfect for the summer.

INGREDIENTS

* 6 portion low-fat digestive(s), crushed
* 2 tablespoon polyunsaturated margarine, melted
* 20 g gelatine, powdered
* 90 ml water, just-boiled
* 500 g low-fat soft cheese
* 200 g low-fat plain fromage frais
* 2 teaspoon vanilla essence
* 2 tablespoon artificial sweetener, powdered
* 150 g strawberries, sliced thinly
* 1 tablespoon caster sugar


METHOD

Mix the crushed biscuits with the melted margarine. Press the mixture over the base of a 20cm (8 inch) loose-bottomed cake tin or deep flan dish. Chill for 20 minutes.

Sprinkle the gelatine over the hot (not boiling) water. Stir well, then leave for about 5-6 minutes until completely dissolved, stirring occasionally.

Beat together the low fat soft cheese, fromage frais, vanilla essence and sweetener. Check the sweetness, adding a little more powdered sweetener, if you like.

Stir in the cooled gelatine liquid, making sure that it is thoroughly incorporated. Pour over the biscuit crumb base, then chill for about an hour, or until firm.

Arrange the strawberries over the surface of the cheesecake. Sprinkle with the caster sugar to give them an attractive glaze. Chill until ready to serve.

Notes

Make sure that the gelatine has completely dissolved before you add it to the cheesecake mixture. Remember that gelatine is not suitable for vegetarians.

Point value: 2.5.. How much is that in calories? I don't know how this point system works

I believe 1 point is equal to 50 calories so if it's 2.5, that's 150 calories.. Not bad right? This is a great low calorie dessert.
