Strawberry Banana Cheesecake Light Or Full Fat Versions
Combining recipe #80301 and acclaimed recipe for strawberry cheesecake on allrecipes.com, i came up with this tweaked, potentially healthier version with full taste. My family loved it, and i will in the future try it with more fruit combinations. i wouldn't recommend going with fat-free products for cheesecakes such as these, as the cake may not set properly. Light and low-fat worked well for me. And using the cooling technique listed below, i managed to get no cracks!!
