For the cheesecake:
- 1 8 oz Pkg Reduced fat cream cheese softened, don't use fat-free
- 1/4 cup +1 tbsp Splenda or zero calorie sweetener of choice or sugar
- 1/2 tsp fresh lemon juice
- 3 oz Bakers white chocolate 3 squares
- 1/4 cup +2 Tbsp Fat-free plain Greek yogurt
- 1 large egg white

- 2 tbsp splenda or zero calorie sweetner of choice (or sugar)
For the white chocolate strawberry hearts:
- 1/4 cup white chocolate chips
- strawberry jam
- fat free half and half or milk
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line 6 muffins tins with muffin lines.
- Beat cream cheese, Splenda and lemon juice until blended and smooth.
- Melt the chocolate in a large bowl in 20 second intervals in the microwave, stiring between each interval, until melted.
- Add the melted chocolate, Greek yogurt, egg white and vanilla into the cream cheese mixture and beat until well blended.
- Divide the batter evenly between the 6 muffin tins and bake for 20 minutes, or until the cheesecake feels just set
- While the cheesecake bakes, it's time to make the topping.
- In a medium bowl, mix together the Greek yogurt and Splenda.
- Once the cheesecake has baked until just set, divide the topping evenly among each and spread it over the top gently.
- Turn the oven temperature down to 250 and bake for 5 minutes more, until the topping feels just set.
- Let the cheesecakes cool completely and then refrigerate over night or for at least 5 hours.
- If you want to make the hearts:
- Line a small cookie sheet with parchment paper.
- Melt the white chocolate in 20 second intervals in the microwave, stiring between each interval, until melted.
- Stir in as much strawberry jam as you want to reach the desired shade of pink.
- If the mixture becomes to thick, thin it with a splash of fat free half and half or milk.
- Spoon the melted chocolate into a pastry bag (or just use a plastic sandwich bag and cut one of the corner tips off) and pipe hearts onto the parchment paper.
- Freeze until hard, about 5-10 minutes, and stick on top of each cheesecake.
- Devour!
