My neighbor Frannie came up with the idea for this cheesecake. Her husband and mine (who are on the Atkins diet) both love it! This cake is sweetened with Splenda. Makes 12 servings, 6 to 8 grams of carbs each.

I'm not a huge fan of cheesecake, but I really enjoyed this one. It's not too sweet and the crust is perfect.

This cheesecake was a little more dense than I expected, but it was still very good. I would recommend using a smaller springform pan if you want a taller cheesecake.
