Indulgent guilt-free dessert: Single-serving cheesecake delight

When you crave cheesecake, you don't have to deprive yourself. In no time, you can make a healthy and light single-serving dessert that will satisfy your cheesecake craving. Just reach for cottage cheese, which is a great substitute for quark. Add a few simple ingredients, chocolate, and fruits to indulge in sweet pleasure.

Cottage cheese is not only a quick snack but also a healthy, high-protein base for making desserts. Aside from breakfast pancakes, it can be used to make a delicious mini cheesecake in a ramekin. Preparing such a dessert takes just a few minutes, so there's room for it even on busy days.

This cheesecake is fluffy and delicate, yet healthy. Cottage cheese is a rich source of protein, and using sugar-free vanilla pudding along with sweeteners like xylitol or erythritol allows you to limit the amount of sugar in the dessert. It's an ideal option for a dessert or sweet snack that satisfies the craving for something sweet without the need to bake an entire cake.

Ingredients:           

• 7 oz cottage cheese
• 1 egg
• A pinch of salt
• 1.5 tablespoons sugar-free vanilla pudding
• 2 tablespoons erythritol
• Half a teaspoon baking powder
• Vanilla extract
• 3 tea biscuits
• 2 pieces of chocolate
• Blueberries or raspberries (optional)

Instructions:

1. Transfer the cottage cheese to a tall container and blend it into a smooth cream.
2. Separate the egg white from the yolk and beat the white with a pinch of salt until stiff peaks form.
3. Add the yolk, pudding, erythritol, baking powder, and vanilla extract to the egg white and briefly mix or stir.
4. Layer the tea biscuits at the bottom of the ramekin.
5. Pour in the prepared mixture and insert pieces of chocolate. You can use white, milk, or dark chocolate.
6. Place the ramekin in an oven-safe dish filled with water.
7. Put it in an oven preheated to 355 degrees Fahrenheit for 35 minutes.
8. After this time, turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside for another 5 minutes.
9. Serve with powdered sugar and blueberries or raspberries.

Enjoy the delicious cheesecake after it cools down. You can make powdered sugar from erythritol if you want to lighten the dessert further. Bon appétit!
