INGREDIENTS:

    Crust :

  • 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 1 1/2 tbsp light brown sugar
  • 2 tbsp melted butter

    Batter :

  • 1 large egg
  • 2 large egg whites
  • 1/2 lb nonfat cream cheese
  • 1/2 cup nonfat sour cream
  • 1/2 cup white granulated sugar
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour

    Topping :

  • 1/3 qt fresh strawberries, sliced
  • 1 1/2 tsp cornstarch
  • 1 tbsp white granulated sugar

STEP BY STEP:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. For the crust, mix graham crackers, melted butter, and sugar together in a small bowl
  2. Add the crust to a 6-inch cheesecake pan. Flatten crust along the bottom and sides of pan 2 to 3 inches high
  3. Chill crust in the refrigerator or until ready to add the filling
  4. For the filling, soften the cream cheese in the microwave on high for about 20-30 seconds
  5. Using the electrical mixer, blend all the batter ingredients, except the egg and egg whites for 2 minutes, until it forms a uniform smooth mixture
  6. To the cream cheese mixture, add the egg and egg whites. Blend until just mixed. Pour the batter into the cheesecake pan
  7. Bake for 60-80 minutes, until the center of the cheesecake is "set", and does not jiggle. Cool
  8. About 10 minutes prior to serving the cheesecake, make the topping. Mix the cut strawberries with the sugar until a little juice is lost
  9. Mix in the cornstarch and stir well. Allow to sit for a few minutes. Serve over the cooled cheesecake.
