For Ceci's birthday I made the most DELICIOUS cake. (and pretty healthy!) I can brag about it because its Susan KB's recipe. (She made it for my birthday last year!) I have to share it! I think its called "Yogurt Cheesecake."
I started with 2 27 oz. containers of plain yogurt. I poured them into a cheesecloth and let the water drain out overnight. (I put it in a stock pot with the lid closed tight and by pulling the cloth up, the yogurt was suspended giving room for the water to drain.) This makes the yogurt have a cream cheese consistency.
Because it was plain yogurt, I needed to sweeten and flavor it. I put in some agave and vanilla extract to taste.
I then made a graham cracker crust with two cups of crumbs, 3/4 of a stick of butter and 1/4 cup of agave. I pressed it into a pie dish and baked it for about 10 mins at 325.
Right before I served it, I put the yogurt into the crust. I then decorated the top with tons of strawberries, kiwis, raspberries, blackberries and blueberries that I had glazed in more agave!! The result was unbelievably delicious!! I need to make this way more often.
