I am not kidding, this is the most delicious thing you will ever taste!

Now I am not a big cheesecake fan whatsoever, so seeing this in the latest issue of #BonAppetit was not something I took note of.  The thing that stood out was the use of Greek yogurt and the yummy pomegranate syrup, so I thought I would give it a whirl. The result was amazing.  This was one of the best things I have ever tasted and I love food, cooking,  and a great pallet.

You have to try this version, creamy, delicious and irresistible!

I bought a graham cracker crust to save time and it did not affect the taste at all, but feel free to make your own!

For the filling:
1 1/2 lbs of cream cheese at room temp.
2 c of Greek yogurt
2 tbs lemon juice
3/4 c sugar
2 tsp vanilla
2 tbs dry gelatin
1/4 tsp kosher salt

In a food processor pulse cream cheese, yogurt, lemon juice, vanilla, sugar and salt.

Take the dry gelatin and dissolve in 2 tbs of water in a heat proof ramekin or bowl. Let this stand for 5-10 minutes.  Take a small sauce pan and heat water, place the container of gelatin inside until liquefied.  Once gelatin in liquefied pour into food processor and mix thoroughly.

Spoon filling into crust and refrigerate for a few hours.

For Pomegranate sauce:
2 C. Pom juice (don't use fresh pomegranate juice, it will turn brown)
2 tbs sugar
3 tbs light corn syrup
Contents of one pomegranate separated to seeds only.  (use for topping and garnish)
Mix juice, sugar and syrup in saucepan.  Bring to a low boil and then simmer for 40 minutes.  Remove from heat and refrigerate.

Ready to serve!  Cut cheesecake and top with syrup and seeds.  Enjoy!
