Yoghurt Plum and Port Cheesecake

Yoghurt Plum and Port Cheesecake

Yoghurt Plum and Port Cheesecake recipe

This cake, is a killer. Who knew plum and port went so well together! I don’t even really like Port, but the sweet taste of the plum makes the Port flavor absolutely addictive.

I made five cakes yesterday when I made this one and none of the others come close to being anywhere near as good.

Cheesecake is another one that is not really a favorite, so to challenge myself I decided that I would incorporate these two flavors into a cheesecake. If I could make a cheesecake that I adored then it would definitely be an amazing cake.

To try to cut down the fat content I opted for a little low fat yoghurt in the mix.

If you’re looking for an unusual but soooo tasty cake this one is a must try!

Ingredients:

Base:

  • 250g nice biscuits
  • 100g butter

Filling:

  • 600g plums
  • 120ml port
  • 500g low fat cream cheese
  • 130g brown sugar
  • 120g vanilla low fat yoghurt
  • 1 tsn vanilla essence
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 egg whites

 

Method:

  1. Pre-heat the oven to 150c degrees and line a 20cm spring form cake tin with baking paper.
  2. Place the butter and biscuits in a food processor and blitz until the mix resembles bread crumbs.
  3. Place in the tin and flatten out with fingertips.
  4. Place the tin in the fridge to set.
  5. Meanwhile,  cut the plum up into slices and place into a saucepan with the port on a medium heat for 5 minutes or until the liquid reduces. Place aside to cool.
  6. Add the cheese, yoghurt, vanilla and sugar into a bowl and using electric beaters whisk for 5 minutes.
  7. Place half the plums with the liquid into a food processor and blitz until smooth, add to the cheese mix.
  8. Add the 2 eggs to the mix, one at a time beat well between each addition.
  9. Place the egg whites into a bowl and beat until peaks form.
  10. Dice up the remaining plums and add to the mix with the egg whites and fold until just combine.
  11. Pour the mix on top of the base and place in the oven for 60 minutes or until the top of the cake is slightly brown.
  12. Turn off the oven and open the door slightly to be jarred.
  13. Leave the cake to completely cool for 2 hours then place in the fridge for 2 hours to set.
  14. Release the tin and place the cake on a plate.
  15. Sieve icing sugar over the top and serve.
