Contest Closed, 12/23/10 (There’s still a yummy, gluten-free, sugar-free cheesecake recipe for you!)
It’s the final day of our massive, 6 week gluten-free holiday event. It’s been loads of fun to see what everyone’s been cooking up and, more importantly, those of you that have shared recipes have helped others find solutions for their holiday meals. I’ve gotten e-mails from readers saying that we’ve saved their holidays. We’ve done something good together.
Thank you.
Today, I have a yummy recipe for you but before I get to that, let me tell you about this week’s give-aways!
Get ‘Em Before Anyone Else Does!
3 copies of More Make It Fast, Cook It Slow: 200 Brand-New, Budget-Friendly, Slow-Cooker Recipes by Stephanie O’Dea (Release date: December 28th!) Buy Steph’s book now and get the special pre-sale price at Amazon.com
before the 28th!!
3 autographed copies of my book, Simply Sugar & Gluten-Free: 120 Easy and Delicious Recipes You Cam Make in 20 Minutes or Less (Release date: Mid-January!)
These books haven’t hit the stands yet so you’re going to get hot-off-the-press copies. (Entry guidelines under the recipe.)
Cranberry Swirl Cheesecake
Creamy cheesecake, sweet-tart cranberry sauce. Swirled together. A little bit of heaven. Make it and find out for yourself. You don’t have to tell anyone that it’s a little healthier. They’ll never know. (Joe didn’t…he said it tastes like the real thing. It does.)
This recipe was adapted from Cooking Light, December 2010 edition.
Ingredients
- 4 ounces biscotti or graham crackers (gluten-free, of course!!)
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 2 (8-ounce) packages block-style light cream cheese
- 4 ounces block-style fat free cream cheese
- 1/2 cup agave nectar
- 3/4 cup plain fat-free Greek yogurt
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 3 extra large eggs
- 2 extra large egg whites
- 1/2 cup Cranberry Clementine Sauce, pureed
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Wrap the outside of a 9-inch spring form pan with heavy-duty aluminum foil. (You want the long aluminum foil here so that it comes up the sides of the spring form pan. Otherwise water can leak into the bottom of the pan and ruin your crust.) Set a kettle of water to boil for the bain marie.
- Place the biscotti or graham crackers in a food processor and whirl until they’re finely ground. Pour melted butter over crumbs and process until they come together. Press the crumbs in the bottom of the pan. Bake for 8 – 10 minutes until crust is slightly puffed and turns a light goled brown. Let cool on a wire rack. Reduce oven temperature to 325°F.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the all of the cream cheese with the agave on medium speed until smooth. Beat in the Greek yogurt, vanilla extract, and salt. Add the whole eggs one at time, mixing each one in before adding another. Scrape the bowl as needed. In a separate bowl, whip the egg whites to stiff peaks. Stir 1/4 of the beaten whites directly into the cream cheese mixture. Fold the remaining egg whites in.
- Gently turn the cream cheese mixture into the cooled crust. Drop the pureed cranberry sauce by tablespoons in a random pattern over the top of the cheesecake. Swirl a knife through the cheesecake to create a beautiful marbled pattern. Place unbaked cheesecake into a 9×13 or larger baking dish. Place the baking dish into the oven and carefully pour hot water halfway up the side of the spring form pan. Bake for 60 – 65 minutes or until the center of the cake barely moves when the pan is touched. Turn the oven off and let the cheesecake cool for 30 minutes with the door closed.
- Remove the cheesecake from the oven and carefully take it out of the bain marie. Remove the foil, run an offset spatula between the cake and the spring form pan, and let cool on a wire rack. Once cooled, cover and refrigerate for 6 – 8 hours before serving.

I thought I had gone to heaven when I found your website (through 365 slow cook site). My family often jokes that it is impossible to make a meal with something both my sister and I can eat. My sister (and aunt and cousin) have a severe gluten intolerance. And I cannot eat sugar. So the both of us are usually stuck picking through or eating bits of things at family meals. I also have a 10 month old and have been hitting the slow cooker hard since there is no time to cook. Out of the million contests I enter (and never win) THIS would be the crown jewel. Thanks! I’m going to try the cheesecake for Christmas dinner!

The Cheesecake recipe looks good – once it’s modified to not include the fake cream cheese. Just like we don’t use artificial sweeteners, we also try not to use things that have been artificially made fat free.

well as for right now my favorite recipe is the pumpkin pie custard mostly because it is SO EASY and tastes decadent. I have a million friends that have made it since. Although the eggnog is a close runner up – infact the best situation would be having a pice of the custard ALONG with a glass of eggnog. There you have it! (my dairly free version of the custard is linked up):-)

I use my copy of “Cook it Fast, Make it Slow” SO much that Santa is bringing me a second, larger crock pot! Hooray! We have had tremendous success making Stephanie’s recipes for monthly pot luck dinners at my son’s school. We have brought Barbecue Ribs and Roast Beef several times. One of the high school students, who is also GF, always runs up to me and asks “did you make it gluten free?” It’s so *hard* to eat clean at pot lucks and large events like that– we used to end up attending but not eating. It’s great to know that this student and I are able to eat *something* at the pot luck! I can’t wait to try more of Amy’s sugar free recipes.

[Reply]
Danielle Smith Reply:

@jerrilynn,
Eliminate the gluten from your diet and see how you feel. I had Asyra testing done on my children, since gluten allergies run in my husbands family. They tested positive for a sensitivity. I eliminated it from their diet and all their symptoms disappeared within a few months. Now if they eat anything with gluten they get stomach aches.
If you go too long with gluten sensitivities it can cause all kinds of health problems.

I thought I had gone to heaven when I found your website (through 365 slow cook site). My family often jokes that it is impossible to make a meal with something both my sister and I can eat. My sister (and aunt and cousin) have a severe gluten intolerance. And I cannot eat sugar. So the both of us are usually stuck picking through or eating bits of things at family meals. I also have a 10 month old and have been hitting the slow cooker hard since there is no time to cook. Out of the million contests I enter (and never win) THIS would be the crown jewel. Thanks! I’m going to try the cheesecake for Christmas dinner!

So many good recipes, how can you pick a favorite? I do like Amy’s recipes because she doesn’t use white sugar. I am gf and am trying to not use white sugar as much as possible. And Stephanie uses a crock pot to make things easier, which is also great.
