I love cheesecake, but it’s too dangerous for me to have an entire cake in the house – I might eat the whole thing! I came up with this recipe for Greek yogurt cheesecake to satisfy my cheesecake cravings in bite sized form.

These cheesecakes can be assembled in minutes and are the perfect make-ahead dessert for when you want a little sweet treat.

You can top these cheesecakes with whatever fruit you like, a drizzle of chocolate sauce would also be a nice addition. I went with fresh berries because we always have them around now that they’re back in season. After you chill these little cakes, it’s easy to unmold them from the cupcake papers. My whole family loves these treats, I make them a few times a month!
