Ingredients
  • 4 ounces (115g) cream cheese,at room temperature
  • 1 cup (8oz/ 225g)sour cream/ yogurt
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla (optional)
  • 4 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 egg white , slightly beaten
  • 1 tablespoon flour (prevents liquid from forming)
  • Sprinkles
  • graham cracker crumbs (around 2 cookies)
Instructions
  1. In a bowl, whisk together the cream cheese, yogurt ( or sour cream) ,vanilla, sugar, egg whites and flour until light and fluffy. This recipe makes 3 cheesecakes
  2. In a microwavable mug, sprinkle a layer of cookie crumbs in the bottom of your mug to create your cheesecake base. My mug is around 6oz (1 cup)
  3. To make 1 Funfetti cheesekcakes: Mix together ½ cup (4oz/ 115g) cheesecake base with
  4. tbsp sprinkles
  5. Pour in your cheesecake ontop
  6. CAUTION : Each mug cake takes roughly 45 seconds-1 minute. Microwave until you see A bubble in the center, and then STOP cooking. This will take seonds, maybe 15 or more. Take it out and check it. Microwave for short intervals until you see the edge of the cheesecake firm but make sure the center is jiggly. If it is allowed to bubble and cook further, the mixture will "break" and you'll need to start over. Make a note of the successful cooking time for your microwave. Take out of the microwave and let cool to room temperature and then refrigerate until fully chilled, about 2 hours. If any liquid has formed, carefully pour out.
  7. Add some sprinkles and whipped cream on top you are ready to eat.
