Ingredients
- 1 cup Low-fat graham cracker crumbs
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 16 ounces Fat-free cream cheese, softened
- 8 ounces Low-fat ricotta cheese
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 4 large Egg whites
- 1.5 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 0.25 cup Mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Lightly grease a 9-inch springform pan or line the bottom with parchment paper for easy release.
Step 2
In a small bowl, mix together the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter until evenly combined. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared springform pan to form the crust. Set aside.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, ricotta cheese, and granulated sugar. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 4
Add the vanilla extract, egg whites, and cornstarch to the cheese mixture. Continue beating until all ingredients are fully incorporated and the batter is smooth.
Step 5
Fold in the mini chocolate chips gently using a spatula, being careful not to overmix.
Step 6
Pour the cheesecake batter over the prepared crust in the springform pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Step 7
Place the cheesecake in the preheated oven and bake for 50 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center has a slight jiggle when shaken.
Step 8
Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside with the door slightly ajar for 1 hour to cool gradually. This helps prevent cracks.
Step 9
Transfer the cheesecake to a wire rack and cool completely to room temperature. Then, refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to set completely.
Step 10
Before serving, remove the cheesecake from the springform pan. Slice into 12 equal portions and enjoy a guilt-free treat!
