Red, White and Blueberry Cheesecake



My big kids love cheesecakes , chocolatey chocolate cakes, tiramisu, fudgy brownies etc. So I'll bake/make some of these 'sinful sweet treats' once in a blue moon and on rare occasions ... just for my 'know-how' to bake these sweet treats and to 'please' their request.

I've made them non-bake cheesecake Eggless non-bake Cheesecake.  Of course, they have asked when will I bake them cheesecake (cos they knew mom is not very fond of cheese and can't bake cheesecake hee .. hee).

I've missed a few bake-along sessions with my cyber blogger pals. Here's sharing this creamy yet light and low-fat baked mini cheesecake in this Bake-Along #78 - theme cheesecake.


Recipe adapted from:
Skinny Taste

Below my slightly modified version and I've halved the recipe to bake 6 cupcakes.

Red, White and Blueberry Cheesecake Cupcakes
Ingredients:
6 wafer crackers
110g less fat cream cheese, softened
20g caster sugar
1 tsp vanilla
85g low-fat natural yogurt
1 egg white
1.5 teaspoon all purpose flour

Some strawberries, hulled and sliced thin
Some blueberries

Directions:
Preheat oven to 177°C.

Some prepared ingredients 


Line cupcake tin with liners. Place a wafer cracker at the bottom of each liner.

Gently beat cream cheese, sugar and vanilla until smooth using an electric mixer. Gradually beat in yogurt, egg white, and flour. Do not over beat. Pour into cupcake liners filling half way.

Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until center is almost set. Cool to room temperature then chill at least 1 hour in the refrigerator.


Before serving, top with some fresh strawberries and blueberries.

My big boy had two at one go ... he claimed very nice.
My girl enjoyed it but very disciplined to just one cupcake.
My mother in-law ate one and commented it tasted very nice.

While I definitely need to try one ...hmm.. creamy yet light and not too cheesy. It's soft texture with berries tasted wonderful good!
But if you're looking for the dense and rich classic New York style cheesecake with a graham cracker crust and high sides ... this is not that kind of cheesecake.

My big boy gladly finished the balance of one cheesecake cupcake the next day.

Taking this opportunity to wish all lovely & wonderful mothers :
♡♡A Blessed Happy Mother's Day
With love, hugs and gratefulness♡♡
♡♡祝天下的妈妈“母亲节快乐”♡♡


Happy Birthday!
