Mini Beary Cheesecake

Who don't love these kawaii beary cheesecake? I had bookmarked this cutie idea created by Angela long time ago and I made it finally. I used my own cheesecake recipe which is so easy and least guilty as I used low fat yogurt instead of heavy cream to bake it. Do give it a try to please your small & big babies at home. :)

Cheesecake recipe by Taglicious

Ingredients:

• 120g digestive cookies
• 50g  melted butter (I warm it using my rice cooker)
• 250g Cream cheese
• 60g sugar
• 1 large egg (Abt 60g)
• 140g low fat plain yogurt
• 1 tablespoon vanilla extract

To decorate into Mini beary cheesecake, item needed

• 1 pack of mini oreo
• A handful of chocolate chips

Steps:

1. Crush the digestive biscuits into small crumbs using a plastics bag & a rolling pin.
2. Melt your butter in rice cooker. Add it into the biscuit crumbs and mix well.
3. Distribute the cookie mixture into 9 small muffin cups evenly. Use a spoon to press it lightly and level the surface. Set aside for later use. 
4. To prepare the cream cheese mixture. Use a electric whisk(Do not use max power when beating the cream cheese, it will create alot of air bubble) to beat the cream cheese & sugar until smooth (Abt 3-4mins).
5. Add in the egg and continue to beat till smooth (Abt 30sec)
6. Add in low fat yogurt and continue to beat till smooth (Abt 1 min).
7. Add in the vanilla extract and continue to beat till smooth (abt 30sec) and it is done.
8. Distribute the cream cheese mixture into 9 small muffin cups evenly. 
9. We can start to decorate it into beary cheesecake. First, separate the mini oreo into 1/2. The side with cream will be the nose and mouth for the bear. (Refer to pictorial for better idea)
10. Use another 2 mini oreo without cream for bear's ears.
11. Finally, use mini chocolate chips for the bear's eyes & nose. Continue to decorate the balance muffin cups.
12. Bake it in a preheated oven for 25mins at 150C. Please adjust your baking time & temperature accordingly as heating elements varies for different oven. 
13. Once the cheesecake is out from the oven, let it cool down and chill it for at least 3 hrs before serving it. Do not worry about the cracks on the surface if any, you will not see it once it cool down.
