Introduction

A lovely little cheesecake type desert (or breakfast!) Low in carbs and calorie friendly, too when you just need a little something sweet. Also freezes well so you can take out one or two at a time, but store the rest. A lovely little cheesecake type desert (or breakfast!)

Ingredients

    2 8 oz packages Cream Cheese
    1/2 cup Splenda
    2 eggs
    1 tsp vanilla
    1 TBP cinnamon

Directions

Preheat oven to 350

Soften cream cheese (can use microwave - or leave on counter for a while ahead of time)

Add all ingredients together and mix well. Pour into 12 muffin cups (fill about halfway) and bake for 20 minutes. (If you want them to "look" nicer - I.e. no cracks on top, you can use a water bath for a slightly longer period of time)

Let cool and enjoy! Store in refigerator or freezer.

    So yummy! Definitely helped with the craving for cheesecake. I added a nut crust (1 cup crushed pecans, a little melted butter and 1 packet of Splenda, bake on 375 for 10 min)...and also added a TBS of sugar free Strawberry Preserves for a topping. Mmmmm.... Love love!! - 4/5/10

    Currently on a Low carb plan, ate these throughout the first 2 weeks, twice, sometimes 3x/day and I've lost 14.5 lbs! Wonderful snack, breakfast on the go, dessert, whatever! - 1/26/10

    This recipe is delicious! I substituted the Cream Cheese for Neufchatel Cheese (which tastes just like Cream Cheese but has fewer calories) and added 1/2 TBSP of All-Spice and 1/2 TBSP Cinnamon instead of a full TBSP of Cinnamon. Mmmm! - 1/23/10

    These are great! So many different ways to make these, I added more cinnamon and cocoa powder. Next time I think I'll try savory ones by not adding the splenda, vanilla or cinnamon and mixing in cheddar cheese and sauteed onions. - 5/5/11
