Diets Who doesn’t love a good hack? Especially when we’re talking dessert, right? These refreshing little mint cheesecake boxes are just adorable, and the perfect way to end your meal! Top it with some frosting and berries and you’re good to go.
Yield: 16 desserts
4 eggs, separated
16 ounces parve cream cheese
12 ounces parve sour cream
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon mint extract
1/4 teaspoon Gefen Lemon Juice
1 tablespoon Glicks Flour
4 ounces parve cream cheese
2 cups Gefen Confectioners’ Sugar
1/2 teaspoon Gefen Lemon Juice
drop of mint extract (optional)
After Eight mint squares
strawberries and/or blueberries
mint leaves
powdered sugar, such as Gefen
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line an eight-inch square baking pan with Gefen Parchment Paper.
Beat egg whites until stiff. Set aside.
Combine remaining cheesecake ingredients in a large mixing bowl and beat until combined. (Do not overbeat, as parve cream cheese tends to become too liquidy.) Fold egg whites into cheese mixture and pour into prepared baking pan.
Bake for one hour. Let cool completely.
Remove the cake from the pan and cut into one-inch squares.
For the cream cheese frosting, beat all ingredients until combined and smooth.
Use melted chocolate to attach 4 After Eight mint squares around the cheesecakes to create little “boxes.”
Pipe cream cheese frosting over the cheesecake and garnish with berries, mint, and powdered sugar.
