Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups Low-fat graham crackers (crushed)
  • 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
  • 16 ounces Low-fat cream cheese (softened)
  • 1 cup Plain fat-free Greek yogurt
  • 0.5 cups Powdered sugar
  • 0.25 cup Fresh orange juice
  • 2 teaspoons Orange zest
  • 1 teaspoon Ground ginger
  • 0.25 ounce Powdered gelatin
  • 2 tablespoons Cold water
  • 1 cup Fat-free whipped topping
  • 0 optional Slices of fresh oranges (for garnish)
  • 0 optional Crystallized ginger (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, combine the crushed low-fat graham crackers and melted unsalted butter. Mix until evenly coated.

Step 2

Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form the crust. Place in the refrigerator to chill while preparing the filling.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the low-fat cream cheese until smooth and creamy.

Step 4

Add the plain fat-free Greek yogurt, powdered sugar, fresh orange juice, orange zest, and ground ginger to the bowl. Mix until well combined and smooth.

Step 5

In a small microwave-safe bowl, sprinkle the powdered gelatin over cold water and let it bloom for 1-2 minutes.

Step 6

Microwave the gelatin mixture for about 10-15 seconds or until the gelatin dissolves completely.

Step 7

Quickly mix the dissolved gelatin into the cream cheese mixture, ensuring it’s evenly incorporated.

Step 8

Gently fold the fat-free whipped topping into the cream cheese mixture until fully blended and lightened.

Step 9

Pour the filling over the prepared crust in the springform pan. Smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 10

Cover the pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4-6 hours, or overnight, until the cheesecake is firm and set.

Step 11

Before serving, garnish with slices of fresh oranges and crystallized ginger, if desired.

Step 12

Carefully remove the sides of the springform pan, slice the cheesecake, and enjoy!
