This recipe for Atkins friendly cheesecake is perfect for those who are looking for a healthier way to enjoy this classic treat.

To make the cheesecake, you will need:

• 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened

• 1/2 cup granulated sweetener

• 3 eggs

• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

• 1/2 cup sour cream

• 1/4 cup heavy cream

• 1/4 cup almond flour

• 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9-inch springform pan.

2. In a large bowl, cream together the cream cheese and sweetener until smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.

3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the sour cream, heavy cream, almond flour, and salt. Add to the cream cheese mixture and mix until just combined.

4. Pour batter into prepared pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until set. Cool completely before serving.

Here are a few tips for making the perfect Atkins friendly cheesecake:

• Use a good quality cream cheese. A high-fat cream cheese will give your cheesecake a richer flavor.

• Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make your cheesecake tough.

• Bake the cheesecake until it is just set. An overbaked cheesecake will be dry and crumbly.

• Let the cheesecake cool completely before serving. This will help it set and prevent it from cracking.

Here are a few variations on the Atkins friendly cheesecake:

• Add a tablespoon of cocoa powder to the batter for a chocolate cheesecake.

• Add a teaspoon of lemon zest and juice to the batter for a lemon cheesecake.

• Top the cheesecake with fresh fruit or whipped cream for a more decadent dessert.
