Ingredients
  

1 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)

1 cup cream cheese, softened to room temperature

1/3 cup honey or maple syrup (adjust sweetness to your preference)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup granola (choose your favorite blend for varied texture)

1 cup mixed berries (fresh or, if using frozen, thawed)

1/4 cup melted coconut oil (optional for added creaminess)

1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional for warmth)

A pinch of salt

Instructions
 

Prepare the Cheesecake Base: In a mixing bowl, use an electric mixer or a whisk to combine the softened cream cheese and Greek yogurt until smooth and creamy. Gradually blend in the honey or maple syrup, followed by the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt. If you're using it, mix in the melted coconut oil and ground cinnamon until everything is well incorporated and creamy.

    Layer the Granola: Grab a set of small dessert cups or jars. Begin by adding a tablespoon of granola to the bottom of each cup. This creates a delightful crunchy layer that pairs beautifully with the creamy cheesecake.

      Add the Cheesecake Mixture: Spoon approximately 2-3 tablespoons of the cheesecake mixture over the granola in each cup, making sure to fill it to the edges for a pleasing presentation.

        Layer the Berries: Gently add a layer of mixed berries over the cheesecake layer in each cup. For a marbled effect, you can alternate with additional spoonfuls of cheesecake mixture.

          Top with More Granola: To finish each cup, sprinkle a generous tablespoon of granola on top, adding an extra layer of crunch and texture.

            Freeze: Cover each cup with plastic wrap or secure with lids, then place them in the freezer. Allow them to freeze for at least 4 hours, or until completely firm.

              Serve: Once frozen, take the cups out of the freezer and let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes for easier consumption. For an elegant touch, garnish with a few fresh berries or a light drizzle of honey just before serving.
