I once won a low-fat contest with this one:
- 2 (10 oz) containers low-fat small curd cottage cheese
- 2 (8 oz) packages light cream cheese (or Neufachel)
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup Frangelico liqueur
- 6 egg whites
- 1 pkg Pepperidge Farm Hazelnut cookies, finely crushed
- 3 Tbsp Frangelico liqueur
- 1/2 cup finely chopped pecans
- Spray springform pan with cooking spray.
- Mix cookies with pecans and the three tablespoons Frangelico.
- Spread half the mixture into bottom of pan. Set aside.
- Mix cottage cheese, cream cheese, sugar, brown sugar, and the 1/4 cup Frangelico. Blend or mix until smooth.
- Add 4 egg whites and continue mixing until smooth.
- Stir in 1/4 cup of crumb mixture.
- Beat other 2 egg whites until stiff. Fold into mixture.
- Pour over crust in pan.
- Bake at 325° for 35-40 minutes, until almost firm.
- Cool 15 minutes. Sprinkle remainder of crumb mixture over top, and chill several hours before serving.
