One-Serving Chocolate Cheesecakes

From The Biggest Loser Cookbook



Ingredients:
1/4 cup Grape Nuts cereal, finely crushed into crumbs
1/2 cup fat-free cream cheesem at room temperature
2 tbsp honey
1 large egg white
1/4 cup fat-free vanilla yogurt
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 cup cocoa powder

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350.

Lightly mist four 3"-wide ovenproof bowls or ramekins with cooking spray. Divide the crumbs among them, spreading in an even layer on the bottoms. Set aside.

In a small mixing bowl, with an electric mixer fitted with beaters, beat the cream cheese and honey on medium speed until smooth. Add the egg white, yogurt, and vanilla. Beat on medium speed just until smooth. On the lowest speed possible, mix in the cocoa. Spoon the mixture into the prepared bowls or ramekins.

Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the centers are set. Let stand for 15 minutes to cool. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Just before serving, top each serving with a tablespoon of whipped topping. Dust with cocoa.

Comments:
Not inedible, but way too much cocoa and not enough sweetener. Even if you like dark chocolate, which I don't really, this might be too much. It needs something to cut that bitter cocoa powder taste a little more. Probably won't make these again without a lot of doctoring.
