FAQs
Can I use other types of cheese instead of cottage cheese?
- A different kind of cheese will alter the point value and calorie count. Instead of cheese, you can incorporate nonfat Greek yogurt to get the same texture and flavor. However, the flavor might vary a little.
What other nut options can I use to prepare these cheesecakes?
- We can utilize finely crushed nuts like almonds, pecans, or walnuts as a topping. Remember that the calorie and point values of different nuts vary.
Can I substitute another extract for the vanilla?
- Yes, you can replace the vanilla extract with lemon or almond extract. Use them cautiously because extracts can be stronger.
