To celebrate here is a version on the Sugar Free Chocolate Cheesecake Cupcakes. The original recipe can be found on BTV.com and has sour cream in it. I gave up sour cream and replaced it with plain greek yogurt so I wanted to see how that worked with this recipe. IT WORKED GREAT! The entire family will love them.
Chocolate Cheesecake Cupcakes
1 box of Pillsbury Sugar Free Devil's Food Cake Mix
1 box of Jello SF FF Cheesecake Pudding Mix
3 eggs or ¾ cup eggbeaters
2 cups of fat free sour cream or greek yogurt
1/3 cup of vegetable oil or you can use applesauce
1/2 cup water
Preheat oven to 350. Place paper liners in cupcake tins (this recipe makes 24 regular-sized cupcakes - I made some mini ones as well). Divide batter among the liners and bake for 15 minutes (slightly less for minis).
I used the eggbeaters, greek yogurt and applesauce and upped the water to 1 cup. It still makes a very thick cake batter. I made 80 mini cupcakes with 1 tablespoon of batter in each cup. I still needed 14 minutes to cook them.
I iced mine with the Pillsbury Sugar Free Chocolate Icing in the can.

My daughter created this recipe 10 years ago when she was six. Yes six, she wanted to be a chef when she grew up. That has not changed but she still likes to cook. This recipe has 7.5g of sugar and most of that is milk and pumpkin sugars. It is not one of those fluffy, pudding like pies. It is a real tasting and feeling custard pie. We top ours with the sugar free cool whip. Yum! I had this for Thanksgiving 2 1/2 week out from surgery.
