Many people believe that cheesecakes are a very caloric and unhealthy product. The fact is that most are convinced of the high fat percentage of cottage cheese – the main component of cheesecakes. However, one serving of cheesecakes contains about 190 calories. This is much lower than the calories in pancakes and many yogurts.
But, it should be remembered that not all cheesecakes are dietary. It depends on the filling, as well as the fat content of cottage cheese.
We will share a recipe for healthy puffy and soft cheesecakes.
