Ingredients

  • 12 - 16 Wafer Cookies pulsed to crumbs
  • 6 tablespoons butter melted
  • 8 ounce cream cheese
  • 1/3 cup confectioner sugar Swerve
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup heaving whipping cream

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Place cookie wafers in a food processor or blender and pulse 3-4 times or until the cookies are crumbs.
  2. Melt butter, then in a medium bowl mix with cookie wafer crumbs.
  3. Line a mini cupcake pan with cupcake liners.
  4. Place a teaspoon of crumbs on the bottom of each liner and gently press down creating a crust.
  5. In a large bowl mix cream cheese with sweetener until incorporated into a light and fluffy mixture.
  6. Mix in vanilla and lemon juice.
  7. Slowly pour in heaving whipping cream and mix on low-medium speed (to avoid splatter) until the ingredients begin to hold together. Increase the speed to medium-high until heavy peaks form.
  8. Place ingredients in a piping bag* and squeeze over prepared crust.

Notes

  • You need 1 1/2 cups of wafer crumbs for this recipe.
  • Lower the carbs by using sugar-free wafers.
  • Top with diced fresh fruit like strawberries, blueberries, and bananas. To glisten the fruit, follow this Fresh Fruit Salad recipe.
  • *No piping bag? Spoon over the crust or place in a plastic sandwich bag, then snip the corner like a piping bag.
  • Mini cheesecake can be stored covered in the refrigerator for 2-3 days.
