Title: Diet Lemonade Cheesecake
Post by: CG6468 on April 02, 2008, 08:19:23 AM

Diet Lemonade Cheesecake

1 pkg. (8 oz.) PHILADELPHIA Fat Free Cream Cheese, softened
1 tsp. CRYSTAL LIGHT Lemonade Flavor Low Calorie Soft Drink Mix 
1/4 cup cold fat free milk 
1 tub (8 oz.) COOL WHIP FREE Whipped Topping, thawed 
1 ready-to-use reduced fat graham cracker crumb crust (9 inch) 
 
Beat cream cheese and drink mix in large bowl with electric mixer on medium speed until well blended and smooth. Gradually add milk, mixing until well blended. Gently stir in whipped topping. Spoon into crust.

Refrigerate 4 hours or until firm. Garnish with fruit, if desired.
 
Note: Place remaining drink mix in glass or plastic pitcher. Add 5 cups cold water; stir to dissolve. Serve over ice.

I just dump in the entire packet of Crystal Light. It makes a tangier end product. This is extremely refreshing on a hot summer day! And try some of the other Crystal Light flavors, like grapefruit.

I always have make a 2nd one for my grandson to take home with him.

(I have no idea of why the word generally associated with saltine is blocked.   :mental: )

I'll bet it will be even more scrumdiddlyumpous if you put the fat back in it.

Use Half & Half....Heavy whipped cream....real cream cheese....homemade graham cracker crust with real butter and vanilla....ummmm.

Lessee . . . the FF for my in-laws, and the all-fat for deer camp.  That works.  :-) :hyper:
