Mandarian Orange Cheesecake

This is good and guilt free

Butter flavored non stick spray
1/4 cup gingersnap crumbs
3/4 cup nonfat ricotta cheese
1/3 cup sugar
3 T plain nonfat yogurt
2 T fat free cream cheese
1 egg
1 T flour
1/2 tsp orange peel
Mandarian orange secions for garnish

Coat a heat proof 1 qt dish with spray. It should fit inside the pressure cooker. Tear off a 14x30 inch piece of foil
and fold in half lengthwise to make a 7x30 inch strip. Place dish in the center of the foil strip. Press crumbs into bottom of dish.

Process all ingredients but orange sections until blended and pour into dish with crumbs. Cover with a second piece of foil.

Place a rack or trivet in bottom of pressure cooker and add 2 cups water. Bring the foil strip over the top and fold it
over the dish and using the strip lower the dish into the cooker. Leave in place for the cooking

Place lid on cooker, lock it into position and place the pressure regulator on the vent pipe (if using a first generation cooker). Bring the pressure up and then lower it to a gentle rocking but maintaining that gentle pressure. Cook for 10 minutes.

Let pressure drop naturally for 5 minutes then quick release any remaining pressure. (Under cold water if a first
generation cooker).

Carefully remove lid. Using the foil strip carefully transfer custard to a wire rack. Remove foil covering and allow custard to cool to room temp. Cover and refridgerate for at least 3 hours. Serve garnished with orange sections.
