Enjoy this healthier version of a Shavuot staple. You will leave the table with a smile on your face and a light feeling in your body.

Episode for this recipe
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
In a large bowl or the bowl of a standing mixer, combine dry ingredients.
Add wet ingredients and mix until a smooth batter forms (use a hand mixer if you’re not using a standing mixer). The batter will be a little thicker than a typical brownie batter.
Spray an eight- or nine-inch round springform pan with oil. Pour in batter and spread with a spatula or back of a spoon.
Parbake for 15 minutes on the center rack.
With a hand blender, blend farmer cheese and yogurt. Add remaining ingredients and mix until a thin batter forms.
Pour batter on top of cooled brownie layer. Bake for 50 minutes.
Allow the cake to cool completely, then cover and refrigerate overnight before serving. Top with fresh berries or as desired.
Notes:
For a sweeter cheesecake, adjust honey to 1⁄2 cup. If you have a "Full ‘N Free palette," decrease honey to 1/4 cup.

Can this be made in a square pan? If so how long to bake? Thanks.
Yes, you can definitely make it in a square pan. Try using a 9x9, and just keep an eye on the bake time-it might be a little shorter.
can I sub xylitol or stevia for the coconut sugar?
There is no reason why not.
You could try, don't see why it wouldn't work.
Can I substitute xylitol for the coconut sugar? Also, does coconut sugar taste like coconut?
Delicious, light and fluffy I made the cheesecake in a 9" pie crust! There was a little extra batter. I used corn starch instead of arrowroot starch. It came out delicious and so light!
Coconut sugar What can I sub the coconut sugar with?
You can use regular sugar or brown sugar.
