No Bake Cheesecake with Blackberries – Weight Watchers Freestyle

I love cheesecake!! However, that wasn’t always the case.

When I was a child I hated cheesecake. I didn’t understand how cheese could be considered a dessert.

I think I was in my 20’s when I started liking cheesecake. That seems to be the case for a lot of food I didn’t like.

I was such a picky eater when I was younger. Everyone always told me that one day my taste buds would change. I guess they were right! I like way more foods now than I did when I was younger.

There are a lot of recipes that I can lighten up to make more Weight Watchers friendly, but cheesecake is a tricky one.

I didn’t want to use fat-free cream cheese so I decided to use fat-free Greek yogurt, vanilla extract and sugar-free jello cheesecake pudding mix.

What I like about using the pudding mix is it hides the taste of the yogurt and it makes the texture of the yogurt similar to cheesecake.

I don’t want to claim that this tastes exactly like cheesecake, but it definitely satisfied my cheesecake craving.

I used blackberries to create a topping. I cooked them in a saucepan with some sugar-free maple syrup and cornstarch. I cooked them until the blackberries were somewhat broken down and the sauce was thickened – roughly 10 minutes.

If you don’t like blackberries you can use blueberries, raspberries or strawberries. Whatever you want!

For the crust of the cheesecake I used graham cracker crumbs. Check out the recipe below!
