Cheesecake Cupcakes

These are the perfect July 4th, Labor day or Memorial Day weekend treat, they taste too good to be under 100 calories! And if you prefer a lemon dessert, try these lemon cheesecake cupcakes instead. If you want them gluten free, leave out the vanilla wafer. For chocolate lover, you may also like this skinny chocolate raspberry cheesecake.

When I was a kid, my mom always made cheesecake cups with vanilla wafers as the crust. I like adding Greek yogurt to my cheesecake as a way to lighten it up, and it also adds a slight tang which I love. For a red, white and blue theme, you can use strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries, or just top them with any fresh fruit you desire! Enjoy and have fun with it!
