Viral Japanese Cookie Yogurt Cheesecake (Low Sugar Version)

If you’ve been scrolling social media lately, you’ve probably seen the viral Japanese cheesecake made with cookies and yogurt. I couldn’t resist trying it—but of course, I put my Bariatric Living 101 spin on it.

For my version, I used Dannon Light & Fit Greek Yogurt paired with Voortman’s Sugar-Free Shortbread Cookies to keep the sugar low while still getting that rich, cheesecake-like texture. Once layered, I drizzled melted peanut butter and Jordan’s Skinny Mixes Caramel Sauce over the top, then finished it off with a crumbled shortbread cookie for a little crunch.

After letting it chill in the refrigerator for about 6 hours, the dessert firms up beautifully and tastes incredibly indulgent—without the sugar crash.

This is a great option when you want something sweet that still aligns with a low-carb, bariatric-friendly lifestyle. It’s simple, no-bake, and perfect for those moments when you want dessert without guilt.

If you try this recipe, let me know how you topped yours!
