Ingredients

  • 25 reduced-fat Oreo cookies,
  • 3 tablespoons fat-free hot fudge ice cream topping
  • 3 tablespoons butter, melted
  • FILLING:
  • 1 envelope unflavored gelatin
  • 1/2 cup cold strong brewed coffee
  • 2 packages (8 ounces each) reduced-fat cream cheese
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1 cup (8 ounces) reduced-fat sour cream
  • 3 ounces bittersweet chocolate, melted and cooled
  • 24 chocolate-covered coffee beans, optional

Preparation

Step 1

Place cookies in a food processor. Cover and pulse until fine crumbs form. Add fudge topping and butter; pulse just until blended. Press onto the bottom of a 13-in. x 9-in. dish coated with cooking spray. Refrigerate for 10 minutes.

Step 2

Meanwhile, for filling, in a small saucepan, sprinkle gelatin over coffee; let stand for 1 minute. Heat over low heat, stirring until gelatin is completely dissolved. Remove from the heat; set aside.

Step 3

In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Beat in the sour cream, chocolate and reserved coffee mixture until blended. Pour over crust. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until firm.

Step 4

Cut into bars. Garnish with coffee beans if desired. Refrigerate leftovers.
