If you are looking for a quick dessert, that isn’t overly indulgent here is a great recipe for you to make. Every time I’ve made this dessert, people seem to be really impressed by it. It’s also great since it takes minimal effort to make.
Servings: 16
Size: 1 mini cheesecake
Points Plus: 3 pp
Level of Difficulty: Easy
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Rating: 4 stars – Very good
Ingredient List:
Nilla wafers, reduced fat
2 8 oz. packages of reduced fat cream cheese
¾ cup white sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla extract
¾ cup cherry pie filling
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350°. Line a regular muffin tin with paper or tin liners. Crush the vanilla wafers in a large zip lock bag and place a small amount of the crushed wafers at the bottom of each liner (if you want to save some time you can just place one whole wafer at the bottom of each liner instead of the crushed mixture). With a mixer, cream together the cream cheese, sugar, eggs and vanilla. Fill each muffin liner with the cheesecake mixture, about ¾ full. Bake for 15 minutes. Cool on a wire rack. Top each mini cheesecake with cherry pie filling and chill before serving.
Tip:
This is a great recipe to bring to a dinner party. It’s really versatile… substitute the cherry pie filling for blueberry or whatever other fruit you prefer to mix it up a bit. Another option to try, make these in mini muffin pans for an even smaller bite-sized version!
