GARBANZO BEAN CHEESE CAKE WITH AVOCADO GRAM CRACKER CRUST

This is called the 33 Cheese cake because it's Half Evil. ;)

This turn out so yummy. And I knocked off so many calories it's not funny. Mind you it's still has calories.  My hubby was grumbling that he did not like cheese cake and kept telling me don't waste my time. He's had his share of rubbery cheese cake.  Well I converted him and he loves it, so do I.     Yummy.

This Recipe requires a food processor.  I know I try to keep away from the contraption, but this time you need one, it does make it easier.
[ Hand creaming garbanzo bean is not easy, I tried it and it's a pill.]  So bleehhh, this is were a little food processor comes in handy.
To the right is the finished Cheese Cake.  mmmmmmmmm
9 inch pie pan will be required.  If you have a square one of similar size that will work too.
 INGREDIENTS:
 1 1/2 cups fine Gram Crackers crumbs.  This will require almost a whole box.
3 Tablespoons of milk
1 8oz package of Cream cheese
1 Medium Avocado
2 Tablespoons butter
1 Teaspoon cinnamon
1 package of Knox Gelitin
1/2 cup sugar - for crust.
1 can of Garbanzo Beans
1 cup sugar - to mix with Knox gelatin.
1 cup of boiling water

First pack Gram Crackers in and grind them down.


 1 1/2 cup finely ground gram crackers.
 Add cinnamon and 1/2 cup sugar and mix in.
 Avocados and two tablespoon of butter and one table spoon of milk  Mix well in mini food processor.
Ok I know what your thinking. This look really awful. But the results are dreamy.   Scoop out avocado on top of the gram crackers and mix in well.

See the picture below first.  My computer won't let me switch the pictures.
Resuming from below:::::   Ok I am not into fancy and prefect, I'm am in to rustic and sloppy. :)     So do what you got to do and spread it out and fill holes that might open up.  No rhyme or reason.     Put this in the oven on 375 for 7 minutes.  Watch!  If you start to smell it and see the edges getting browned it's done.    Note: This is the only baking you will be doing.
 After you mix in the avocado into the crumbs will, dump it into the pie pan and spread out evenly.  See the picture above.
 You will need one packet.
 Garbanzo Beans or G Beans.   I can right into the food processor.   Blend them up really good, toward the end add two table spoons of milk and blend some more.
 Cut your cream cheese into little piece and add to the creamed G beans, until all the cream cheese is incorporated.
Waa la.
 Add 1 cup of sugar to a pan with 1 packet of Knox Gelatine.  Have a cup of boiling water ready.
 Pour in boiling water and stir till all is dissolved and gelatine is gone, about 7 minutes.
 Ok now pour the some what cooled Gelatine into a measuring cup and only pour a little bit in the top of the food processor like below.

 Put the lid on and mix it in. This will start the incorporation of the liquid a bit easier.  After this pour the mixture into a glass dish and add the rest of the gelatine and mix in very well.   Then pour all into the curst.

Chill in refrigerator for 3 hours or more.   YUM!

I can not wait to have a slice after dinner tonight.

Enjoy your Healthy cheese cake.  ;)
