 An oldie but a goodie from the 70's.  I remember making this and enjoying it.

From contributor: "The following are two versions of a recipe I got when I was attending Weight Watchers in the 70's; one of the weekly hand-outs that are so helpful. I've never seen this recipe in any of the subsequent WW cookbooks and I really cherish this one because it's such a great tasting lunch. I hope you like this "legal" cheese cake in 2 versions."

Use blender. Blender should run the whole time ingredients are being added. Do not change the order of the ingredients.
