Recipe - Cherry Chocolate Cheesecake

CRUST
One half cup Plus 2 T Oatmeal
One fourth cup Applesauce
One half cup Sugar
1/3 cup Cocoa
2 tablespoon Unbleached Flour
One fourth cup Honey
1 tablespoon Vanilla

CHEESE CAKE
3 FF (8oz) Cream Cheese
Three fourths cup Sugar
3 Eggs (I used Three fourths cup
eggbeaters)
1 tablespoon Vanilla

I thought I would share this cheese cake I tested out on my coworkers to
see if it was good enough for Thanksgiving.

I used the recipe on the back of Fat Free Philly Cream Cheese for the cake
& the "Oatmeal Fudge Bars" from the fatfree archives for the crust.

Crust: Mix oatmeal & applesauce & let sit for 5 min. Mix in rest of
ingreadiants. Spread in a sprayed baking dish and bake for 10 min @ 325. I
used a 8 x 11 casserol pan. If you just want to make the fudge bars use an
8 x 8 or 9 x 9 pan and bake for 22 min @ 325.

Cheese Cake: Mix Cream Cheese and Sugar together until creamy then add eggs
& vanilla. Don't overbeat after adding eggs. Pour on top of fudge bar crust
& bake for 40 min.

Cool & chill overnight & top with Cherry pie filling.

WARNING this is RICH!!! I test alot of recipes on people I work with
(especially desserts) & never tell them the stuff is fat free. I haven't
ever had any comments that stuff tasted odd. This cake got rave reviews in
the Potluck today & several people asked for the recipe.
