Ingredients

Curst:

Cheesecake layer:

  • 3/4 cup nonfat greek yogurt OR coconut vegan yogurt
  • 8 oz low fat cream cheese OR vegan cream cheese
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1 Tbs lemon juice
  • pinch of salt

Toppings:

  • 1 cup peanut butter panda puffs
  • 3 Tbs dark chocolate chips
  • 3 Tbs white chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup melted peanut butter
  • 1 Tbs chopped peanuts (optional)

Directions

  1. Line a mini muffin tin with mini cupcake liner.
  2. For the Crust: In a food processor, blend the Panda Puffs until a light powder.  Pour into a bowl and combine with the coconut oil until evenly mixed.  Pour about a teaspoon of the mixture into each of the muffin tin wells.  Press it down with your fingers or the back of a spoon into an even layer across the bottom of the cupcake liner.
  3. For the Filling: Clean your food processor out, and add the yogurt, cream cheese, vanilla, maple syrup, lemon juice and a pinch of salt and blend until smooth. Pour about a tablespoon of this mixture on top of the crust layer.
  4. Cover and refrigerate overnight, or until pretty solid.
  5. Once hardened, top liberally with Peanut Butter Panda Puffs, white and dark chocolate chips and drizzle with peanut butter.
  6. Keep refrigerated. They are best within 2 or 3 days.
