100 Calorie Cheesecake Recipe

The other week I made applesauce, remember?

‘Twas delicious.

But what was more delicious was the fake cheese cake I made with it.

Last step optional, but definitely enjoyable.

Okay, okay – it wasn’t as good as these…

Mini-cheesecakes from my coworker/friend who came over the other weekend. Plus oranges. The oranges negate the cheesecake, I am right? I’m right. I know.

What’s your favorite kind of cheesecake? You can make this kind with mashed banana instead of applesauce if that’s more your fancy. I’ve done mashed banana cheesecake with great results.

    It’s been a long time since I had cheesecake (the real kind), but I think my favourite is coffee flavoured….or pumpkin. Yum!

    Lovely! Too bad I can’t eat dairy, but I think my mom would love this. I’ll tell her!

    OHMYGOSH ANY kind of cheese cake works for me but I love it topped with either lemon anything or cherries.

    I die for ColdStone’s Cheesecake icecream and cherry pie filling.

      @Cindy: No! I need to get some more apples. :)

    looks yum maggie! my take: blend in some pumpkin puree and pumpkin pie spice or maple syrup or extract for pumpkin pie cheesecake!

    and then top with applesauce.

    That sounds perfect, and how cute are mini-blenders?! I will whip mine out just to admire how tiny it is!
    I think my favorite cheesecake is a family recipe that is VERY creamy and totally guilt-inducing but worth it!!!

    Question — what do you mean by “mini blender”? Like a Magic Bullet, or a stick blending thinger?

    • Maggie 4 February, 2011 at 4:53 pm Reply

      @Beth: Dang, should have said “mini food processor” – I’m sure a fullsize one would work as well. (Especially for making bigger batches… :D )
