Ingredients
- 24 pieces Ladyfingers
- 8 ounces Low-fat cream cheese
- 1 cup Plain nonfat Greek yogurt
- 1.5 cups Fresh blueberries
- 0.25 cup Lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Lemon zest
- 0.5 cup Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Gelatin powder
- 0.25 cup Water
- 5 pieces Fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Line the sides of an 8-inch springform cake pan with ladyfingers, standing them upright with the sugared side facing outward. Cut a few to size if needed to ensure the base is fully covered as well.
Step 2
In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin powder over 1/4 cup of water. Let it sit for 5 minutes to bloom.
Step 3
In a small saucepan, gently heat the gelatin mixture over low heat until completely dissolved. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl, combine the low-fat cream cheese, Greek yogurt, powdered sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract. Beat with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
Step 5
Slowly pour in the slightly cooled gelatin mixture while beating on low speed until fully incorporated.
Step 6
Fold in 1/2 cup of the fresh blueberries into the cream mixture gently, reserving the rest for the top.
Step 7
Pour the mixture into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly over the ladyfinger base.
Step 8
Top the charlotte with the remaining fresh blueberries, spreading them evenly over the surface.
Step 9
Cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight, until the filling is fully set.
Step 10
Before serving, carefully release the springform pan. Garnish with fresh mint leaves, if desired. Cut into slices and enjoy a light and fruity dessert!
