Sounds really good! Thanks for the recipe.
You could sub Stevia or Truvia for the sugar and cut the calories even more.

Another variation: Chocolate cheesecake minis: If chocolate wafers are available, use instead of vanilla wafer in the bottom of each cupcake paper. I couldn't find any, so I used vanilla wafers.

Make as above for plain cheesecake minis except add to the cream cheese batter 1/4 dark cocoa powder, and a tablespoon or 2 of milk or almond milk to thin the batter down a little. Bake as above. When done, remove from oven and top each mini with 3 Ghiradelli 60% bittersweet chocolate chips. Let them melt and spread across the top of each mini with a small spoon. Cool and refridgerate. 105 calories each, makes 12.

OMGoodness! These sound divine!! I think the spice one with a pumpkin butter topping would be awesome for Thanksgiving!!!

ladyzerosix

Yummy! So totally gonna make this, thanks!

I made these with the gingersnap cookies and added cinnamon to the batter. I was only able to fill 11 muffin cups so the calories were a little higher, but right around 100. I keep them in my freezer and take them out 10 minutes before I want to eat them. They are delicious! I encourage all cheesecake lovers to try them
