Greek Yogurt Cheesecake with Red Fruit Coulis

Greek Yogurt Cheesecake with Red Fruit Coulis

For all the cheesecake lovers, here is a new twist to your traditional dessert. Reduce the fat content by mixing in Greek yogurt. This gives the cheesecake a lighter and fluffier texture. It is absolutely delicious and doesn't require a lot of baking skill!
Not everyone likes fruit, but we added some frozen wild blueberries on top. 

Ingredients:
Crust:
1 pack graham cracker
¼ cup sugar
¼ cup butter, melted
Filling:
16 oz reduced fat cream cheese
16 oz Greek yogurt (Fage, 2% fat)
2 eggs
1 cup sugar
1  tbsp. cornstarch
1 tsp. vanilla extract
Fruit Coulis:
12 oz of frozen red fruits
1/3 cup of sugar

Instructions:
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
2. Take a 8-inch cheesecake pan, and wrap foil around it. Make sure the foil wraps the sides, so no seam is open, as this pan will be sitting in water.  
3. In a food processor, combine graham crackers, sugar and melted butter. Make sure all is processed finely.  
4. Press mixture in the cheesecake pan. Don't forget the sides also!
5. Next, the filling. Combine cream cheese and yogurt. Whisk thoroughly, for about 2 min. (It will be fluffy). Add eggs, sugar, vanilla, and cornstarch. Whisk together until well combined.  
6. Pour filling in pan, on top of your crust.
7. Take a baking sheet pan (or a larger pan so the cheesecake pan can sit in), fill up with boiling water. Place baking sheet in oven. Put the cheesecake pan on the baking sheet, sitting in the water.(Hopefully you wrapped the cheesecake pan well, so no water can leak inside, through the seam!) 
8. Cook for 1 hour. Then turn off oven, open slightly oven door, and let it sit in the oven for 1 more hour.
9. Remove cheesecake from oven, and refrigerate for 2-3 hours before eating!
10. The fruit coulis is easy. While cheesecake is cooking, prepare the coulis. In a small to medium size saucepan, combine frozen fruits and sugar. Bring to boil. 
11. Remove from heat. Place a bowl under a very fine strainer or cheese cloth. Pour fruit mixture, and make sure the seeds stay in the strainer. Refrigerate for 1-2 hours.
