Categories     Cheesecake

Time 35m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 3/4 cups smooth 5% ricotta cheese
3 ounces light cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup low-fat sour cream
1 large egg
3/4 cup sugar
3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1 1/2 tablespoons flour
1/3 cup miniature marshmallow
4 tablespoons semi-sweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper muffin liners.
  • In a food processor, combine ricotta, cream cheese, sour cream, egg, sugar, cocoa, and flour; purée until smooth. Divide among prepared muffin cups.
  • Set the muffin tin in a larger pan. Pour enough hot water into the pan to come halfway up the sides of the muffin cups. (This keeps the cheesecakes moist.).
  • Bake in the centre of the oven for 20 minutes. Sprinkle marshmallows and chocolate chips evenly over cheesecakes. Bake for 5 minutes longer, or until marshmallows and chocolate chips begin to melt.
  • Remove the muffin tin from its water bath. Let the tin cool on a wire rack. Chill before serving.

I'm not a big fan of cheesecakes, but I actually really enjoyed these. They were light and fluffy, and the crust was perfect.

These cheesecakes were a lot of work to make, and they didn't turn out as good as I hoped. I wouldn't recommend this recipe.

Overall, I thought these cheesecakes were just okay. They weren't bad, but they weren't amazing either.

These cheesecakes were a bit too sweet for my taste. I would have preferred a less sweet cheesecake.

I found these cheesecakes to be a bit bland. They needed more flavor.

The crust on these cheesecakes was a bit too hard for my liking. I would have preferred a softer, more crumbly crust.

These cheesecakes were a bit too light and fluffy for my taste. I prefer a denser cheesecake.

I was a bit skeptical about making cheesecakes in a muffin tin, but I'm so glad I did! They turned out so cute and perfect. I'll definitely be making these again.

I love that these cheesecakes are made with low-fat ingredients. They're still just as delicious as regular cheesecakes, but they're much better for you.
