Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Wrap the outside of a 9-inch springform pan with foil to prevent leaks. Coat the inside of the pan with cooking spray.
- Pulse the graham crackers in a food processor until crumbled. Add 1 to 2 tablespoons water and the butter; pulse until moistened. Press the crumbs onto the bottom of the prepared pan. Bake until browned, about 8 minutes. Let cool, about 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, beat both cream cheeses and the sugar with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until smooth, about 5 minutes. Beat in the sour cream on low. Lightly whisk the 3 egg whites in a bowl, then add to the cheese mixture along with the 2 whole eggs, flour, vanilla and lemon zest. Beat on medium speed until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Pour over the crust.
- Place the cheesecake in a roasting pan and add enough warm water to come one-quarter of the way up the sides of the springform. Bake until the cake is set but the center still jiggles, about 1 hour 10 minutes. Turn off the oven; keep the cheesecake inside with the door closed for 20 minutes.
- Remove the cake from the water bath and transfer to a rack. Run a knife around the edge, then cool completely. Chill until firm, at least 8 hours. Top as desired.

- Fold in Cool Whip and blend well. Spoon into pie crust. Chill until set for about 2-4 hours. Optional: Top with your favorite fruit. Slice and serve.
Tips:
- Use a food processor to quickly and easily combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter for the crust.
- Be sure to press the crust mixture firmly into the bottom of the springform pan to prevent it from crumbling.
- To ensure a smooth cheesecake filling, use a blender or food processor to combine the nonfat cream cheese, sweetener, and eggs until light and fluffy.
- For a richer cheesecake, you can use full-fat cream cheese instead of nonfat cream cheese.
- If you don't have a springform pan, you can use a 9-inch pie plate instead. Just be sure to trim the excess crust around the edges.
- You can add your favorite toppings to the cheesecake before baking, such as fresh berries, chocolate chips, or chopped nuts.
- The cheesecake is done baking when the center is set and no longer jiggles.
- Let the cheesecake cool completely before serving to allow it to set properly.
