Ingredients

• 1.5 cups graham cracker crumbs
• 0.25 cups unsalted butter, melted
• 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
• 16 ounces reduced-fat cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
• 8 ounces white chocolate, melted and slightly cooled
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 0.5 cups powdered sugar
• 1 cup fresh berries (optional, for topping)
• 2 tablespoons shaved white chocolate (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and honey or maple syrup. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated and the mixture resembles wet sand.

Step 2

Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form the crust. Use the back of a spoon or the bottom of a measuring cup to ensure an even layer. Refrigerate while you prepare the filling.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and Greek yogurt together until smooth and creamy using a handheld or stand mixer on medium speed.

Step 4

Add the melted white chocolate and vanilla extract to the cream cheese mixture, mixing until fully incorporated.

Step 5

Sift in the powdered sugar and continue to beat the mixture until it is smooth and fluffy.

Step 6

Pour the cream cheese mixture over the prepared crust in the springform pan. Smooth the top with a spatula for an even layer.

Step 7

Cover the pan with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the cheesecake to set.

Step 8

Once set, remove the springform pan's outer ring. Garnish with fresh berries and shaved white chocolate, if desired.

Step 9

Slice and serve chilled. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
