Cheesecake Muffin Pan Minis (LOW FAT!)

If you love cheesecake, but you find yourself avoiding it because it's too fattening or because you always seem to go for a larger slice than you should, then you'll LOVE these low-fat cheesecake minis!  They're only 165 calories and 2.2 g of fat each!!!

Ingredients

~20-30 Reduced Fat Nilla Wafers

2 (8 oz.) packages 1/3 Less Fat Philadelphia cream cheese

3/4 cup sugar

2 eggs

1 tsp. vanilla extract

1 can No Sugar Added Cherry pie filling (I use Comstock)

Crush vanilla wafers in a closed freezer bag with a rolling pin.  Put ~1 Tbsp. of crushed wafers in the bottom of each lined muffin cup.

In a medium mixing bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar, eggs, and vanilla until smooth and light, making sure all the lumps are out.  Fill the muffin cups almost to the top.  Bake at 350 for 15-20 minutes.  Let cool, then top with cherry pie filling.  Makes 12.

These are great for parties.  You could add some blueberries on top of the cherries and have a red, white, and blue treat for the Fourth of July!  What's really great is,  these little guys are low fat!!  :)
