Ingredients

This Now, Make It Later!
  • 200 g Greek yogurt
  • 80 g cream cheese
  • 2 tbsp honey (40 g)

Tools Needed

How to Make Greek Yogurt Cheesecake Cups

  1. Mix the base: In a bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt and cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
  2. Sweeten it up: Stir in honey until fully incorporated. Taste and adjust sweetness.
  3. Assemble: Spoon the mixture into small cups or jars.
  4. Chill: Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to let the flavors meld and the texture firm up.
  5. Serve: Top with your favorite fruits, a sprinkle of nuts, or a touch of cinnamon.

These little cups feel like a hug in dessert form—creamy, light, and soul-satisfying.

What to Serve with Greek Yogurt Cheesecake Cups

  • Fresh berries or a fruit compote
  • A sprinkle of granola for crunch
  • A drizzle of melted dark chocolate
  • Pair with coffee or herbal tea for the ultimate cozy treat

Tips for Making It Perfect

  • Use full-fat Greek yogurt for the creamiest texture.
  • Let the mixture chill—it gets thicker and more cheesecake-like with time.
  • Always taste before chilling; you may want to adjust sweetness.

Storage Instructions

  • Store in the fridge for up to 3 days in airtight containers.
  • Not freezer-friendly, as yogurt tends to separate.

General Information

Cheesecake has been loved for centuries, but this version is all about balance. By replacing much of the cream cheese with protein-rich Greek yogurt, you get that luscious taste with a lighter feel. Think of it as the best of both worlds—comfort food with a health boost!

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Can I make these ahead of time?
Yes! They’re perfect for meal-prep desserts. Just cover and chill.

2. Can I use flavored yogurt?
Plain Greek yogurt works best so you can control sweetness, but vanilla Greek yogurt is also lovely.

3. Can I add a crust?
Absolutely! Crushed graham crackers or oat crumble pressed into the bottom of the cups make these extra special.

Conclusion

These Greek Yogurt Cheesecake Cups are the definition of balance—indulgent but light, creamy but refreshing, sweet but wholesome. If you loved this healthier spin on dessert, you might also enjoy these recipes from the blog:
