Ingredients
  

  • 150 g crushed cookies (like graham crackers)
  • 100 g melted butter
  • 1 kg yogurt
  • 200 g sugar
  • 45 g flour
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 4 pieces eggs
  • 150 g dulce de leche (optional, for topping)

Equipment

  • 9-inch springform pan
  • Mixing bowls
  • Whisk or electric mixer
  • Spatula
  • Oven

Method
 

  1. In a bowl, mix the crushed cookies with the melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan and bake at 160°C (320°F) for 15 minutes. Remove and let it cool slightly.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the yogurt, sugar, flour, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth. Add the eggs one at a time until fully incorporated.
  3. Pour the filling over the cooled crust and smooth the top. Bake at 160°C (320°F) for 50-60 minutes until the edges are set but the center still jiggles slightly.
  4. Let the cheesecake cool to room temperature, then chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving. Add your favorite toppings.

Notes

For an extra creamy texture, use Greek yogurt instead of regular yogurt. You can substitute the crust with any type of cookie if you don't have graham crackers. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight when ready to serve.
