Ingredients

For the base:

70 g rich tea biscuit crumbs or graham cracker crumbs
30 g low-fat butter* melted
10 g stevia*

Strawberry puree:

100 g fresh strawberries

For the cheesecake filling:

1 large egg
150 g Philadelphia lightest*
150 g 0% fat greek yogurt
65 g stevia*
½ tsp vanilla extract
7 g plain/all-purpose flour

Instructions

Pre-heat oven to 180ºC (350ºF). Line a 12-count muffin tray with 10 muffin liners, set aside.
In a medium bowl, make the cheesecake base by mixing together the cookie crumbs, melted butter and stevia and until well combined.
Scoop 2 heaped tsp of the base into each muffin liner and flatten with the back of a spoon. You should be able to fill all the muffin liners about 1/4 of the way. Bake for 10 minutes then set aside to cool.
In a small bowl, make the strawberry puree by mashing the fresh strawberries until pureed. You can also blend the strawberries for a smoother puree. Set aside.
Make the cheesecake filling by combining the egg, cream cheese, yogurt, stevia, vanilla extract and half of the strawberry puree in a medium bowl until smooth. Sift in the flour and whisk to combine.
Transfer the cheesecake filling to a piping bag, snip off the end and pour the filling over the baked bases. You want to fill them until they are mostly full with only a small amount of the liner empty at the top.
Scoop 1 tsp of the remaining puree onto each cheesecake and use a toothpick to create a swirl. Bake the mini cheesecakes for 30-35 minutes or until they stop wobbling in the centre.
Allow the cheesecakes to cool completely at room temperature before transferring to the fridge to set for at least 4 hours. Enjoy!
