I have done alot of research however most of the recipes for eggless cheesecakes consists of eggs. If you want eggless you got to replace eggs with sour cream or whipped cream. This makes the cake all the more fattening as already cheese content is high. I smartly replaced egg with flaxseeds. With flaxseeds the nutrition value of cake has gone higher.
