Ingredients
  

For the Crust
  • 1 cup Graham Cracker Crumbs Provides a buttery base; feel free to use digestive biscuits as a substitute.
  • 4 tablespoons Melted Butter Binds the crust ingredients together; coconut oil works for a dairy-free version.
For the Filling
  • 1 cup Cottage Cheese Offers creamy body and a mild tang; replace half with Greek yogurt for extra creaminess.
  • 1 cup Plain Yogurt Maintains moisture; opt for Greek yogurt for a thicker texture.
  • 2 large Eggs Essential for structure; no substitutions recommended.
  • 3/4 cup Granulated Sugar Sweetens the cheesecake; adjust to taste.
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract Adds warmth; can be omitted.
  • 1 tablespoon Cornstarch Stabilizes the filling; arrowroot powder serves as a gluten-free alternative.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a 6-inch springform pan by greasing it or lining with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs with melted butter until sandy. Press this mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan to form a crust.
  3. In a blender, add cottage cheese, plain yogurt, eggs, sugar, vanilla extract, and cornstarch. Blend until smooth, about 1-2 minutes.
  4. Pour the filling over the prepared crust and gently tap the pan on the countertop to release air bubbles.
  5. Bake in the oven for 35-40 minutes until the edges are set, but the center wobbles slightly.
  6. Cool the cheesecake at room temperature for 30 minutes, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  7. Remove the sides of the springform pan and slice the cheesecake. Serve cold, topped with fresh fruits or honey if desired.

Notes

Ensure your cottage cheese is blended until smooth to avoid curds. Keep an eye on the baking time to maintain a creamy texture. Chill completely for best results.
