Ingredients
For the Blueberry Swirl
- Wyman's Frozen Wild Blueberries
- granulated sugar
- lemon juice
For the Graham Cracker Crust
- graham cracker crumbs
- brown sugar
- unsalted butter, melted
For the Cheesecake Filling
- cream cheese, softened to room temperature
- granulated sugar
- vanilla extract
- fat-free plain greek yogurt
- egg whites, room temperature
- all-purpose flour

Step-By-Step Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Prepare a 12 cup muffin pan with liners. Set aside.
- In a small saucepan, heat the frozen wild blueberries, granulated sugar, and lemon juice over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and lower the heat to low. Simmer for 5-7 minutes, until the mixture starts to thicken. Blend until smooth, or if you prefer blueberry chunks, mash until you reach your desired consistency. Put in the refrigerator to cool while you prepare the crust and cheesecakes.
- In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, brown sugar, and melted butter using a fork. Evenly distribute the mixture between the liners. Using a cup, press down the mixture in each liner to make a tight crust.
- In a large bowl, using a hand mixer on low speed, beat the cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Gradually beat in the vanilla extract, greek yogurt, and egg whites. Beat in the flour until combined. Do not over mix, you do not want to add air into the mixture.
- Divide the batter evenly among the prepared baking cups. Top each with a teaspoon of the blueberry swirl mixture. Using a toothpick or butter knife, swirl the blueberry mixture into the cheesecake to create a marble effect.
- Bake for 25 minutes, or until the cheesecake centers are almost set. Let cool in the pan to room temperature.
- Place the mini cheesecakes in an air tight container and refrigerate for at least 3 hours before serving.
