He found nothing. Not to be deterred, ingenuous man that he is, he created a masterpiece recipe.
Doesn't it just look delicious?
So here's your recipe:
Chocolate Chip Ricotta Cheesecake
Ingredients:
16 oz. ricotta cheese
1/4 cup plain yogurt (vanilla would work, too)
4 eggs
2/3 C sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 C mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 prepared chocolate pie crust
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Beat ricotta, yogurt, eggs, and sugar. Add vanilla. You can mix in chocolate chips now or save to sprinkle on top.
Pour mixture into the prepared shell. Do not overfill the shell -- it rises slightly when baking.
Bake for 45 to 50 minutes. Let pie cool, then refrigerate to set; the pie will become creamy and dense. Serve cold.
Enjoy!
Simple ingredients and sounds so good! Yummo! Best wishes, Tammy

ReplyDeleteI'd never thought of making it crust-free. Hope it turns out for you! Yum!!! =)
DeleteThis is still us, we updated our Google account, and then I accidentally hit 'delete' instead of 'reply' up above ! Ahh! So sorry. We did make it crust-free...and it turned out pretty good! I simply lightly greased the pie pan with extra-virgin unrefined coconut oil. And I used 2/3 C xylitol and 1/3 C organic coconut crystals instead of regular sugar and a splash of lemon juice and 2 tsp cinnamon instead of the chocolate chips (we're kinda health foodies). I would say, overall, it tastes like cheesecake, maybe a little more watery (?) in texture, not as thick and creamy as the real fattening recipes ;-) ! But it's a nice, light treat and VERY low carb! Thanks again! What a talented hubby you have!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds fantastic! Maybe slightly more like a pudding than a 'solid' cheesecake? I love the idea of the cinnamon and lemon instead of chocolate chips, too! Did you use freshly squeezed or bottled lemon juice?
DeleteGlad it worked out!
