Ingredients
    Crust
    1¼ cup almond meal
    2 Tbspn butter, melted
    2 Tbspn sugar equivalent in artificial sweetener

    Filling
    1½ lbs (3 packages) cream cheese, room temperature
    1¼ cups sugar equivalent in artificial sweetener (preferably powdered erythritol or liquid sweetener) (I used a little less than 1 Cup of erythritol)
    1½ teaspoons vanilla extract
    ¼ teaspoon salt
    4 eggs, room temperature
    ¼ cup lemon juice (fresh is best)
    1 Tablespoon lemon zest
    ¼ cup heavy cream

Topping
1 cup sour cream
Juice and zest from 1 medium lemon (about 2 Tablespoons juice and 1 Tablespoon zest)
¼ cup sugar equivalent in artificial sweetener
½ teaspoon vanilla extract

(For the step by step directions, see the recipe at the link above)

I don't have a springform pan, so I used a round cake tin and baked mine in the oven without the use of a water bath.  I also wasn't able to get a full tablespoon of lemon zest for the filling, but it turned out nicely lemony just the same.   

Nutritional Information (each serving is 1/16th of the cheesecake): 3 grams effective carbohydrate plus 1 gram fiber, 7 grams protein, and 295 calories.

When you do, call or send some over, Star. Then we can repeat it in reverse.  ;)
