Weight Watchers Key Lime Bliss Cheesecake Bites
Ingredients
- ⅓ cup graham cracker crumbs
- 1 tsp butter melted
- pinch salt
- 4 oz low fat cream cheese room temperature
- 6 tbsp plain fat free Greek yogurt room temperature
- ⅓ cup sugar
- 1 large egg
- 2½ tsp fresh key lime juice
- 2 tsp key lime zest plus, more for garnish
- 6 tbsp light whipped topping
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325°F.
- Place 6 paper cupcake liners in a regular-size muffin pan.
- In a small bowl, mix together graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and a pinch of salt.
- Evenly divide the crumb mixture into the bottom of each cupcake liner (around 1 tablespoon in each).
- Lightly press down the crumb mixture with the back of a spoon to flatten it. Then, bake it for 5 minutes.
- While the crust is baking, prepare the filling. In a different bowl, beat together cream cheese, yogurt, sugar, egg, lime juice, and lime zest until you get a smooth mixture.
- Once the crust is done baking, take it out of the oven and pour the cream cheese filling evenly into each prepared cupcake liner (about a rounded 1/4 cup in each).
- Bake the cupcakes until the top is set, which should take around 20 minutes.
- After baking, let the cupcakes cool completely. It usually takes about 1 hour for them to cool down properly.
- Once they're cooled, it's time to garnish! Add 1 tablespoon of whipped topping on top of each cupcake.
- Sprinkle a little lime zest over the whipped topping for that extra burst of flavor and a nice finishing touch.
