Baked cheesecake using low fat cream cheese

[SuperMoonIsKeepingMeUpToo]

Would you? Could you?

I've just put it in the oven. The batter had the consistency of milk. It's not going to be a success, is it? 😥😥😥

You really need full fat stuff i think

Bugger. That was a waste of ingredients. It's leaking out of the base (as I'm leaking out of my eyes).

I think it has a higher water content to make it lower fat. It certainly doesn't work in non-baked recipes.

it's fine.
you could also use quark (a lot less fat)

Yeah low fat isn’t really any good for cheesecake

Low fat isn’t really any good for anything!

it's my offering for a dinner party tonight. I should have known better - I never usually get low fat stuff.

I think it's all right. Didn't help that the recipe was a bit pants and gave a baking temperature of 90 deg. Should have trusted my instinct again there. I turned it up after 45 minutes (the suggested cooking time) and gave it another 45 minutes.

I've not got a good feeling about the base though, having poured such a wet batter onto it.

The proof will be in the pudding!
