Thanks for condensing.

I was just going to try & do that..

Add me to the "thank you" list, for all your time and hard work in compiling all these pages.

Mr. YoYo · 05-30-2006, 05:31 AM

I thought I'd share a variation I tried.

I used Banana DaVinci's and Banana Extract.

They came out quite yummy!

seriouschick · 06-16-2006, 01:46 PM

These sound sensational. I'm going to bake a batch tonight. I'll make half the original sweet version, and the other 1/2 savory (w/ bacon & chives).

Well I have a sweet tooth today for some reason (possibly af?) so I decided to make these. My daughter and I liked the bowl. MMMMMMmmmmm. I am tring so hard not to eat them before they are cool. I put them in the freezer to cool faster. Will report back when I can't hold out any longer and eat one.

harmaa · 07-07-2006, 12:43 PM

I'm on induction, and the recipe makes 6 muffins for me. How many should I limit myself to a day? Only one, or is two okay?

tim964 · 07-07-2006, 02:00 PM

I'm no expert, but I would avoid these all together on induction. You really need to watch your cheese intake. That being said, if you've gotta have one, I'd limit it to one.

Charski · 07-07-2006, 03:28 PM

You are allowed cream cheese on induction but if you're making a full recipe and only getting 6 muffins out of a pound of cream cheese - I'd sure not eat more than one a day! That's nearly 3 ounces of cream cheese per muffin. I think I recall (and don't have my book to check right now) that it's 2 ounces of cream cheese a day max?? Maybe someone can look that up for you!

harmaa · 07-07-2006, 06:42 PM

Eeek... I guess I should get a 12 cup muffin pan. They must be tiny!

jamielynn23 · 08-09-2006, 06:00 AM

Oh, the cheesecake muffins are wonderful!! I like them cold. By far my favorite L.C. recipe yet. THANKS!!!

Buffy45 · 08-10-2006, 10:01 AM

Made these for the first time yesterday, they are very good. Will try with pumpkin next time.

JONAH'S GRANNY · 10-24-2006, 06:12 AM

I'm going to try them with the light cream cheese as I'm trying to watch calories too. I bet the pumpkin flavored would be good.

momov2boys · 10-24-2006, 06:24 AM

JONAH'S GRANNY, please post to let us know how they come out with the light cream cheese.

Thank you

I always use 1/3 less fat cream cheese and they are wonderful!

With SF chocolate chips genrly mixed into the batter they remind me of the Blackbottom Cupcakes that I used to make in the old days, ie: pre-lowcarb (with the cream cheese & chocolate chip fillings). In CA they have the Hersheys SF pieces in the baking isle at the grocery store, so they're easily accessable! Yummy!

DEBI IN OHIO · 10-26-2006, 07:36 AM

OK i made them yesterday, had to have one out of the oven..YUCK, waited 2 hours tried another one....still didnt like them......had one the next day (this am) better but, im glad i only made 1/2 batch....

nedn2lose · 10-26-2006, 08:36 AM

I made these using the 1/3 less fat cream cheese. I only had the Splenda pkts. and used 12 to equal half of 1/4 cup then used Davinci syrups (to cut down some carbs) for the other 1/4 cup. I made 2 diff. flavors. One was banana w/just a wee bit of SF strawberry jam on top,then baked. Other batch was with vanilla Davinci and pumpkin pie seasoning. I think both came out excellent and ohh soo easy. Thanks for the recipe,its been a lifesaver in the mornings.

Tryinghardtolose · 10-26-2006, 08:43 AM

I'd love to try these with pumpkin in them. Please, has anyone tried this yet?? How much did you use in them?? Did you omit anything?

It's that time of year and I want pumpkin in everything!!

Thanks so much!

I made another batch but added a cup of pumpkin, another egg, cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves to taste (you could use regular pumpkin pie spice but the only kind I have has added sugar in the ingredients) They didn't sink and they taste exactly like a pumpkin cheesecake I used to make for Thanksgiving. Thanks so much for this recipe!!

Pumpkin Cheesecakes

2-8 oz. pkgs. of cream cheese
1 can pumpkin
1/4 c. granulated Splenda
1/4 c. Davinci praline syrup
1/4 c. sour cream
3 eggs
1 t. cinnamon
1/2 t. ginger
1/4 t. cloves

Mix together according to original recipe on page 1 of this thread. I put about 1 teaspoon crushed pecans in the bottom of my paper muffin cups. I baked at 350 for 20 minutes and left in oven with door open until they had cooled. When I removed them from the oven and they were cooled I took them all out of the muffin papers and they came out beautifully leaving no residue behind. After refrigerating, the texture was very creamy like pumpkin pie.

This made 24 muffins and I figure approximately 2 carbs per muffin.
