Ingredients

• For the crust:
• 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs
• 2 tablespoons butter, melted
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• For the filling:
• 5 ounces cream cheese, softened (you can use low fat or regular)
• 1 5.3 ounce container of Clover Vanilla Organic Greek Yogurt
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1 egg
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2/3 cup fresh berries

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a muffin tin with 6 paper liners.
In a small bowl mix together the graham cracker crumbs, butter and sugar until thoroughly combined. Spoon one tablespoon of the graham cracker mixture into each liner and press down to flatten.
In a medium bowl, using a mixer or a whisk, beat the cream cheese until very smooth, 2-3 minutes. Add the Greek yogurt, sugar, egg and vanilla extract, beat 1-2 minutes to combine.
Pour the cheesecake filling evenly over the crusts.
Bake for 25 minutes or until centers are set.
Remove from oven and cool at room temperature for 20 minutes. Transfer to the refrigerator and chill for at least 2 hours.
Remove paper liners and top the cheesecakes with berries. Serve immediately.
