Blueberry Cheesecake

Ingredients

Cheesecake Whip Base

• 1.5 cups Plain nonfat Greek yogurt
• 4 oz Low-fat cream cheese, softened
• 1 scoop (~25g) Vanilla protein powder
• 2 tbsp Honey or maple syrup
• 1 tsp Vanilla extract
• 1 tsp Lemon juice

Blueberry Compote

• 1.5 cups Fresh or frozen blueberries
• 1 tsp Lime juice
• 1 tbsp Honey
• 1 tsp Cornstarch + 1 tsp water (slurry, optional for thickening)

Crumble & Topping

• 4 sheets Graham crackers, crushed
• 1 tbsp Melted butter
• 1/2 cup Fresh blueberries (for topping)

Instructions

1. Make the Whip: In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add the Greek yogurt, vanilla protein powder, honey, vanilla extract, and lemon juice. Whip using an electric mixer or whisk until creamy and fluffy. Place in the refrigerator to chill for 10 minutes.
2. Make the Compote: In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine 1.5 cups of blueberries, lime juice, and honey. Simmer for 5–6 minutes until the berries begin to burst. Stir in the cornstarch slurry if a thicker consistency is preferred. Remove from heat and cool completely.
3. Make the Crumble: In a small bowl, mix the crushed graham crackers with the melted butter. Toast the mixture in a dry skillet over medium heat for 2 minutes for extra crunch.
4. Assemble the Jars:
   • Layer 1: Add 2 tbsp of the toasted graham cracker crumble to the bottom of 4 glass jars.
   • Layer 2: Add a layer of cheesecake whip.
   • Layer 3: Swirl in a spoon of the cooled blueberry compote.
   • Repeat: Add another layer of whip and compote.
   • Topping: Top each jar with fresh blueberries and a final sprinkle of graham crumble.

Storage & Pro Tips

• Refrigeration: Store tightly sealed in the fridge for up to 4–5 days.
• Keto Adjustment: To lower carbs, swap the honey for a zero-calorie liquid sweetener (like stevia or monk fruit) and use keto-friendly almond flour crumbs instead of graham crackers.

Here is the Weight Watchers point breakdown for 1 jar (based on 4 equal servings):

• WW Points (Standard / PersonalPoints): ~5–6 points per jar
• WW Blue Plan: 5 points
• WW Green Plan: 7 points
• WW Purple Plan: 5 points

Points Breakdown & Lower-Point Tweaks

• Base & Whip (1–2 Points): Nonfat Greek yogurt is 0 points on most plans. Using 1/3-less-fat or fat-free cream cheese reduces points further.
• Compote (1 Point): Blueberries are 0 points; the main point source is the 1 tbsp of honey split across 4 jars.
• Crumble (3 Points): Graham crackers and butter contribute the majority of points.

Tips to reduce to 2–3 Points per jar:

• Swap honey for zero-calorie sweetener (e.g., liquid stevia or monk fruit) to save 1 point per serving.
• Reduce butter to 1/2 tbsp or use light butter spray for the crumble.
