For the crust:
• Biscuit digestive, crushed – 12 to 14

• Gently beat cream cheese, yogurt, corn flour, sugar until smooth and gradually beat in yogurt, vanilla essence, lemon juice.( Do not over beat)

• I used stevia sugar for the cream cheese layer so this can be diabetic friendly as well

  6. Looks tempting Chitra. Cheese cake is all time favourite for me. I prepared it with Strawberry sauce topping, http://jayeetacha.wordpress.com/2014/03/12/new-york-cheesecake-with-strawberry-sauce-topping/, though my version was not a low fat one. 😉
