I had to come up with a dessert to bring to a training meeting recently and this is what I brought.
In a bowl, combine:
1 envelope Knox gelatine
12 packets Truvia sweetener
1 cup boiling water
Stir it occasionally, allowing the gelatin to dissolve, for about 5 minutes
Meanwhile, in a mixing bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed, combine till fluffy:
2 - 8 ounce packages cream cheese, softened
1 teaspoon vanilla
Beat the gelatin mixture into the cream cheese mixture until they are completely combined. The mixture will be very runny at this point. Pour it into 9" pie pan and chill it for about 20 minutes.
Drain the juice from:
1 12-ounce (approximately) can mandarin oranges, juice packed if possible
Place the oranges on the top of the dessert in a decorative fashion. Chill the cheesecake until it is firm, for about 3 hours.
Optional: You could use a baked low carb pie crust and use this for the filling.
Serve and Enjoy!
