Vanilla Bean Crème Brûlée Cheesecake Cupcakes Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C) and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
- In a small bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, 2 tablespoons of sugar substitute, and "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter!" until well combined.
- Press about a tablespoon of the crumb mixture into the bottom of each cupcake liner to form the crust.
- Bake the crusts in the preheated oven for 5 minutes. Remove and let cool while you prepare the filling.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the fat-free cream cheese and 2/3 cup of sugar substitute until smooth and creamy.
- Add in the vanilla extract and the seeds from the vanilla bean, mixing until well incorporated.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring they are fully mixed between additions.
- Blend in the fat-free Greek yogurt and unsweetened almond milk until smooth.
- Spoon the cheesecake filling over the cooled crusts, filling each cupcake liner almost to the top.
- Bake for 22-25 minutes or until the centers are set and no longer jiggly.
- Allow the cupcakes to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight.
- Before serving, sprinkle 1/4 teaspoon of sugar on top of each cupcake. Use a kitchen torch to caramelize the sugar until it forms a golden crust. If you don’t have a torch, you can place them briefly under a broiler, keeping a close eye to prevent burning.
