Answers: My grandmother used to make this fluffy cheesecake that had pineapple and nuts in it. She was from West Virginia and made this for as long as I can remember. I am CRAving this cheesecake. Can anyone help?

1/4 c. apple juice concentrate
1 (20 oz.) can crushed pineapple
2 (16 oz.) containers 1% fat (by weight) cottage cheese

Mix for crust
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla
Cottage cheese
Combine Grape Nuts, cinnamon, and apple juice concentrate thawed on the bottom of a springform cake pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes. In blender or processor puree cottage cheese until smooth. Drain unsweetened juice from the can of crushed pineapple set it aside, add the crushed pineapple and vanilla to the cheese mixture, blend, add the two pineapple juices together.
Sprinkle the gelatin over the juice drained from the crushed pineapple. Let set 2 minutes and then stir over a low heat until dissolved, add the gelatin mixture to the cheese mixture and blend well, pour filling on top of the Grape Nut crust. Refrigerate 2 hours. Yield: 1 inch slice = 70 calories.
