Microwave Cheesecake for 2

Start your day with this sweet, filling treat, or enjoy it for dessert at the end of a long day.  It’s done in minutes rather than hours, and it’s pretty darned good for “cheesecake” from the microwave.

Ingredients:

  • 1 8 oz block cream cheese
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 t vanilla extract
  • sweetener equivalent to 1/4 c sugar (I use a mixture of stevia and EZ-Sweetz liquid sucralose.)

Procedure:

  1. Place cream cheese in a small, flat casserole dish.  (I actually use a pasta bowl.) Soften in the microwave for 45 seconds.
  2. Add egg, vanilla, and sweetener to the softened cream cheese and beat with a fork or stiff whisk until smooth.
  3. Microwave on high for 3 to 3 1/2 minutes or until just set.  Allow to cool before eating.  The longer it cools, the better it tastes!
