Leanne’s Mini Cheesecakes

Ingredients:

Crust:

  • 3/4 cup ground almonds
  • 1 Tbsp xylitol (or sweetener of choice)
  • 2 tsp Becel light olive oil margarine
  • 1 tsp cinnamon

Filling:

  • 16 laughing cow cheese wedges
  • 1/2 cup xylitol (or sweetener of choice)
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla

Directions:

Crust:

  • Mix all well and press into the bottom of a regular 12 count muffin tin.  I used cup liners for easy removal, and an appropriately sized cup to press it down firmly.
  • Bake crusts 10 mins at 350 F.
  • Pull out and let them cool as you prepare the filling.

Filling:

  • Blend/whisk wet ingredients together until there are no lumps.
  • Divide evenly amongst the muffin cups.
  • Bake 20 mins at 350 F and then remove to cool.

You can top them as desired and eat.  They also freeze and defrost very well.
