With a history almost as rich as its flavor, cheesecake is one of the most popular desserts around. Though many would assume it first hailed from New York, its decadent roots reach much further. In fact, it is believed that the sweet treat was served as a reward to winners of the first Olympic games in 776 B.C. And although the dessert can be high in fat, sugar, carbs and calories—a healthy alternative to curb your craving is here! It’ll still taste like a reward, we promise!
