Greek Yogurt Cheesecake Cups
Description
These Greek Yogurt Cheesecake Cups consist of two main components: a graham cracker crust and a cheesecake filling. The crust is made by finely processing graham crackers with melted coconut oil and brown sugar, then firmly pressing the mixture into small individual cups. This forms a crunchy base that supports the creamy topping.
The filling blends cream cheese blocks with Greek yogurt, honey, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt, creating a lightly sweetened, tangy cream with a smooth texture. After combining, the filling is spooned into the prepared crust cups and chilled for 2 to 3 hours to allow setting.
Just before serving, diced strawberries or other berries are added for freshness and color. The cups provide single-serving portions ideal for gatherings or a light dessert option. The balance of the sweet crust, tangy filling, and fresh fruit makes these cheesecake cups a pleasing combination without heavy richness.
