LITE CHOCOLATE RASPBERRY
CHEESECAKE
 
3 sq. Baker's semi-sweet chocolate
1/4 c. water
1 tub (8 oz.) Philadelphia brand light pasteurized process cream cheese product
1/2 c. light or low calorie raspberry fruit spread
3 1/4 c. (8 oz.) Cool Whip lite whipped topping, thawed
2 tbsp. water
36 fresh raspberries
2 chocolate wafer cookies, crushed

Microwave chocolate with water at high 1 to 1 1/2 minutes or heat on range top on low, stirring constantly until almost melted; remove and stir until completely melted. Mixture will be thick.

Beat chocolate, cream cheese product and 1/4 cup fruit spread. Immediately stir in 2 1/2 cups whipped topping until smooth. Spread in 8 or 9 inch pie plate or spring form pan. Freeze 3 to 4 hours.

Remove from freezer; let stand 15 minutes. Briefly heat and stir remaining fruit spread and water until well blended. Garnish as shown. Store leftover cheesecake in freezer. Makes 12 servings.

Since microwave ovens vary in power, you may need to adjust your cooking time.
