So this weekend I was determined to succeed and not binge on everything sweet. Saturday night I felt the urge coming on to bake brownies (luckily I didn't have any in my house)
Then I remembered early last week a great MFP pal told me of a snack that she enjoys and I was immediately inspired to take it one step further.
SO here is my recipe... and let me tell you.... it is DELICOUS! They taste Pretty much just like Cheese cake! but they are much healthier for you!
NUTRITIONAL INFO
74 calories per Cake
9 carbs
2 fat
4 protein
Yields 12 servings.
Greek Yogurt Cheese Cake Mini's
INGREDIENTS:
12 oz Plain Greek yogurt (I used Chobani Brand)
1 package Sugar Free Fat Free Cheese Cake Pudding Mix
1 Cup Milk (I used 2% It was all I had)
3 Tbs Butter (I use smart balance Light)
5 Chocolate Graham Crackers ( I used off brand)
12 Cupcake liners
DIRECTIONS:
In Zip Lock Baggie, finely crush Graham Crackers. Melt butter and Mix into Graham Crackers until well blended. In a lined cupcake tin, evenly distribute Cracker Mixture and pack it down (I used my finger lol). In a mixing bowl, add Greek yogurt, Cheese cake pudding mix, and milk and mix well. once well mixed Evenly distribute into the cupcake tin. Refridgerate or Freeze for about 30 minutes. Enjoy!
I think next time I will modify it and add a little vanilla I am not used to the sour creamish flavor of plain greek yogurt yet. The individuals are nice because I dont' have to measure, but if I were making this for a party I would definately make it in a pan.
I hope you enjoy!!!

The recipe looks great. You said next time that you think you might use vanilla extract, but I would suggest almond to make it taste more authentic. I'm gonna give this a go. Thanks for sharing.0

I made these last night with just a little almond extract and no crust (I didn't have anything on hand to make a crust from), but I thought they were amazing. I had some frozen cherries that I thawed and added some truvia too and topped it with fat free Reddi Whip. Thank you so much for this recipe! These were fabulous!!0

Have you ever tried it with Dannon or any of the other yogurt brands? It sounds great, I can't wait to try it. You coul even put a little Sugar free cool whip on it.

No This was my first time trying Greek yogurt. I used it over regular because of its protein content and nutritional value.
Feel free to experiment with any other brand,. the reason I chose chobani was because it was the lowest calorie wise of the brands the grocery store had.0 -
