A lighter, healthier take on classic cheesecake, made with creamy Greek yogurt and rich dark chocolate.
Ingredients
- 1 cup Graham crackers
- 6 tablespoon Unsalted butter
- Sugar
- 2 cup Greek yogurt
- 16 oz Cream cheese
- 3 Egg
- 2 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 8 oz Dark chocolate
- Heavy cream
Instructions
Preheat oven
Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C).
Prepare graham cracker crust
Crush graham crackers into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a ziplock bag and crushing with a rolling pin.
Mix crust ingredients
In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar until well combined.
Press crust into pan
Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove from the oven and let cool.
Prepare cheesecake filling
In a large bowl, beat the Greek yogurt and cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Melt chocolate
Chop the dark chocolate into small pieces. In a microwave-safe bowl, heat the chocolate and heavy cream in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval, until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth.
Combine chocolate and filling
Fold the melted chocolate mixture into the cheesecake filling until well combined.
Pour filling and bake
Pour the filling into the cooled crust. Bake for 1 hour, or until the edges are set and the center is slightly jiggly.
