Wondering the aisles of Amaranth Whole Food Market the other day I noticed that a table was set up offering samples of yogurt. I noticed that it was Greek Gods yogurt, a yogurt that was recommended by Shauna over at Gluten Free Girl.
I tasted a small sample with blueberries and went “Wow, this is wonderful, tangy and rich in flavour.” The sample was the honey flavoured and I quickly added it to my purchases.
Once home I thought I should do something special with this yogurt and remembered making mini-cheesecakes many years ago. I know I had fresh berries around and so I did some baking.
Now… in years pre-celiac I would have used “Nilla” vanilla wafers, so what should I use now? I had a bag of Pamela’s Simplebites Extreme Chocolate Flavored Mini Cookies. I used them.
Mini Cheesecakes are so easy to make. You don’t need many ingredients to make them, and their short oven time is perfect in the summer.
