ISO lactose free cheesecake

Senior Member Joined: Jul 19 2007 Posts: 212

my DD is lactose intolerant, but very extremely so, that lactaid pills dont help her at all. She pretty much cant eat any dairy that has lactose in it. Yogurt and goat cheese have no lactose and therefor she can have those.
I need a recipe for a cheesecake that calls for yogurt (no cream cheese) I do have a bit of goat cheese in the house -probably around 4 oz. I think I may be able to substitute it for cream cheese.
Can anyone please help me out with a recipe???
I don't want DD to be left out when everyone has their yummy cheesecake and dairy delicasies (sp?)
Thanks so much.

why don't you make her a tofutti cheese cake? you take any regular recipie that involves cream cheese or sour cream and you substitute toffutti products.

Check out Stonyfield Farm's website. They have lots of yogurt recipes although I second the tofutti cream cheese cake. I've made it and nobody was able to tell that it wasn't milchig.

You might be able to use this recipe, and sub the goat cheese for the cream cheese.
If you only have 4 oz of the goat cheese, then you would have to quarter the recipe and make a mini cheesecake / cheesesnack.
(4 oz goat cheese, 2 Tbsp+2 tsp sugar, 1 egg white, 1/2 tsp vanilla extract, 1/2 cup yogurt, 1-1/2 tsp flour - in crust)

The recipe that I have calls for sour cream, but I often substitute it with plain yogurt, to make it a bit low fat. I would give you the recipe, but it has ingredients that you can't get in the US, but I am sure that you can do the same substitution in any recipe.

The problem is that I always make parve cheesecake for a regular shabbos desert, so I really wanted her to be able to have "real" cheesecake like everyone else.
I think I might just try that recipe, thanks for making the recipe smaller for me. it sounds just right and that way, she can have her own cheesecake.
