Steps:

• Grease the inside of a springform pan. Place a rack in the bottom of a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and add 1 inch of water.
• Blend cream cheese in a bowl using an electric mixer until completely smooth with no lumps. Add sugar substitute and vanilla extract. Blend until just incorporated. Add eggs 1 at a time and blend until completely mixed in, but do not overbeat.
• Pour batter in the prepared springform pan. Cover bottom and sides of pan tightly with a single piece of aluminum foil to prevent water from leaking into the pan.
• Lower the filled springform pan onto the rack in the pressure cooker pot. Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 20 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
• Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, 10 to 40 minutes. Remove the lid and allow cheesecake to slightly cool inside the pressure cooker, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the cheesecake carefully and allow to cool completely, about 30 minutes more. Remove aluminum foil; cover cheesecake with plastic wrap and refrigerate until chilled, 2 hours to overnight.
• Dice strawberries and sprinkle over cheesecake just before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
• Separate the eggs very carefully, there must be no yolk in the white.
• In one bowl, mix together the egg yolks, the 3 T. of Cottage Cheese OR Cream Cheese and the one packet of Sweetener until smooth.
• In the other bowl add 1/4 teaspoon of Cream of Tartar to the whites and beat the whites on high speed until they are fluffy and form nice peaks.
• Very carefully fold the egg yolk mixture into the egg whites until mixed, but try and not break down the fluffiness of the egg whites too much.
• Spray two cookie sheets with Pam or other fat-free cooking spray.
• With a large spoon, "scoop" the mixture into 10 even rounds on the sheets (about the size of the top-half of the McDonalds hamburger bun; roughly 3/4 inch thick and 4 to 5 inches across).
• Bake on the middle rack. Here is when you have to watch them, because the cooking time is not the same on any two batches. It is somewhere around 1/2 hour, but it could be less or more. You just need to watch them until them become nice and golden brown (again, the color of a McDonalds bun).
• Remove from the pans and cool on a rack or cutting board.
• While warm they are crumbly and similar to cooked meringue - but don't let this fool you! Once completely cool, seal them in a ziplock storage baggie or a tupperware over night. They will totally change their consistency, to something much more like bread - a softer texture that is nice and chewy. If you do not like softer chewy bread, then eat them as they are, nice and crisp.
• Since the sides that were facing the pan are perfectly flat, you use these to spread things on, or make sandwiches, or even as a burger bun! The choice is up to you, and you will be quite amazed at how much like a bun these really are!
