Updated on Feb 13, 2011

I FINALLY found this amazing recipe. I got it from a friend when I lived in Hilton Head, SC. Jason lost over 100 pounds on his low carb venture and was ALWAYS coming up with incredible low carb, sugar free recipes. I am so glad that I found this. It's in the oven as I type. It's my Valentine treat for my family(well me too). If you try this I hope you enjoy it as much as we do. ******My cheesecake was done after 70 minutes but all ovens are different...AFTER 60 minutes I took the cheesecake out of the waterbath and put it back in the oven for the last 10 minutes, keeping the foil on. Let it cool before removing from the pan...
