Ingredients

For the crust:

  • 2 tbsp light butter, melted
  • 1 tbsp zero-calorie sweetener or sugar substitute

For the filling:

  • 12 oz light cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup nonfat plain Greek yogurt
  • ⅓ cup granulated erythritol or other sweetener
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 eggs
  • ½ cup Caramilk chocolate, melted (plus extra for drizzling)

Instructions

1. Prep the Oven and Pan
Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C). Lightly grease or line a 9-inch springform pan with parchment paper.

2. Make the Crust
In a small bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sweetener. Press firmly into the bottom of the pan. Bake for 8 minutes, then set aside to cool.

3. Prepare the Filling
In a large bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Add yogurt, sweetener, and vanilla; mix well. Add eggs one at a time, mixing just until incorporated.

4. Add Caramilk Swirls
Pour the cheesecake filling over the crust. Drop spoonfuls of melted Caramilk over the batter and swirl gently with a knife or skewer for a marbled effect.

5. Bake and Cool
Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the center is just set. Turn off the oven, crack the door, and let the cheesecake cool inside for 30 minutes. Then refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.

6. Serve
Before serving, drizzle with extra melted Caramilk if desired.
