When it comes to cheesecake, there are two types of cheesecakes: the classic recipe that uses sour cream as a topping and the yogurt-based cheesecakes. Do you know which one is better?
What is the difference between sour cream and yogurt cheesecakes?
The sour cream-based cheesecake has a more natural, creamier texture while the yogurt-based cheesecake has a softer, less dense consistency. Additionally, sour cream-based cheesecake can have more tangy taste and is denser in terms of moisture. The yogurt-based cheesecakes are lighter and have more airy texture.
The sour cream-based cheesecake is easier to make because all you need is eggs, flour, sugar and vanilla for the crust, but the yogurt-based cheesecakes require an additional ingredient—lowfat or nonfat yogurt.
What are the benefits of using yogurt as a cheeseecake topping?
The main difference between the two types of cheesecakes is the type of cheese used. The classic recipe uses cream cheese, while yogurt-based cheesecakes use yogurt instead.
If you’ve never tried a yogurt-based cheesecake before, you’re really missing out! Yogurt provides a tangy flavor that works great with other ingredients like lemon and sugar in order to create a light and refreshing dessert.
Yogurt-based cheesecakes are much easier to make than their cream cheese counterparts, which require lengthy cooking times on the stovetop or in the oven. They also have fewer ingredients than traditional cheesecakes: all you need is graham crackers, sugar, and milk for the base.
One downside of using yogurt as a topping is that it takes longer to set up. The longer setting time means that you won’t be able to serve these desserts right away; they’ll need at least an hour to chill before serving them. However, once they’re chilled, they’re firm enough to serve and taste just as good as traditional cheesecakes.
How to make a sour cream-based cheesecake?
If you’re looking for a classic cheesecake recipe, sour cream is the perfect topping. Sour cream and cream cheese provide a creamy, rich taste that complements the sweet taste of the cake. It’s also made with butter, eggs and flour with no added sugar or preservatives.
To make a sour cream-based cheesecake, simply follow these steps:
1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and line an 8×8-inch pan with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt until well combined.
3. Add the butter and eggs to this mixture and stir until smooth.
4. Add in yogurt and vanilla extract and mix until it becomes completely mixed together.
5. Pour the batter into your prepared pan, spreading it evenly over the bottom of the pan with a spatula (being careful not to get any batter on top of the parchment).

Conclusion
There are a couple of differences between sour cream and yogurt cheesecakes. Sour cream cheesecakes contain less yogurt than yogurt cheesecakes. This can result in a cheesecake that has a more acidic taste. However, sour cream is also a less expensive option than yogurt.
