People will rave over this super-easy cheesecake appetizer. Says Sandy Burkett of Galena Ohio, “I've made this recipe several times at parties, and people were so surprised it was low fat.” Make it a day ahead for convenience, adding salsa just before serving.

Cheddar TipSelect sharp cheddar when using packaged shredded cheese from recipes that you’d like to have a bolder flavor. If you will be shredding cheese at home from bulk cheddar, you can choose from mild, medium, sharp and extra sharp.

I haven't made this yet but want to. Is it possible to use no fat cream cheese and no fat sour cream?

New addition to my party appitizer choices. I made this to observe Cinco de Mayo. Took it to work to share. Everyone is really enjoying it and asking for the recipe. I will make again. I'm even thinking to spread refried beans over the top, more sour cream and shredded cheese, and home made pico. Of course it would no longer be "low fat" but hey it's for a party!. Awesome recipe. Thanks for sharing.

My husband and I really like this cheesescake. I only put the salsa on what we were eating at the time. I have frozen the leftover and look forward to using it when we have company.
