star spangled pie
Wow, I found a wonderful light version of a cheesecake in this recipe. Plus with the addition of cookies in the mix just adds to the texture and flavor too. I made this for Memorial Day and it disappeared too quickly. LOL...kids and adults just loved it. (We even used Neufchatel cheese in place of cream cheese. It has 1/3 less fat and still it was delicious.) It is a super easy recipe and if you love your cheesecake this is sure to please. Found this recipe on snackpicks.com. --- Photos are my own.
