So i made these last night, baking them in the oven, and adding a crust of almond meal, chopped pecans, shredded coconut, splenda, and butter.
They were pretty wonderful and addictive. I'm going to do it again adding some orange peel to the fillng. |

oh my deliciousness! i made 1/2 batch last nite, ate 2 of them while they were still warm and then popped the rest in the fridge. had 2 for breakfast this morning, and they were even more divine. didnt have any vanilla extract so i put almond extract in it, and it made the whole house smell delightful. will definitely be making these ALL the time and grabbing a couple for breakfast. cant wait to try out new things too - davinci, preserves in the dent, etc.etc. definitely a quick easy recipe that i give

My latest tweak:
Added 1/4 cup vanilla whey protein powder to the batter as had been suggested here, and made a crust of 1/2 cup toasted unsweetened coconut, 1/2 cup chopped, toasted macadamias, a few drops of liquid splenda, and mushed it all together with 1/4 cup of coconut oil. Baked without batter in muffin tins for about 7 minutes before adding batter and then doing the 18-20 minute bake. Yum!! |

Well, after hearing about this since I came back to the boards, I finally came in to see what all the fuss was about.
Now I have a half batch of the original recipe cooling in the water bath in the oven. I looooooooooove cheesecake, and these are so easy that I had to try them. Now I just have to wait until tomorrow. ![]() Thanks Joan, for the original recipe, and thanks everyone else for the ideas and tweaks. ![]() |

![]() I made these today...and while not AT ALL pretty, they are delicious and very satisfying. I just re-started induction today, so i'm only having the plain crustless ones. I made the original version, but subsititued 1/3 c. vanilla davinci for the sweetener. I cut this down from 1/2 c. as they were to eggy/soggy that way with the first batch i made . I found measuring out 1/3 c. for each muffin tin worked great, so i tweaked them individually that way. I made blueberry/lemon using fresh berries and a very small dash of crystal lite lemon powder. Strawberry using strawberry davinci w/ a diced whole strawberry in the middle. Carmel davinci with SF maple syrup on top. Pumpkin using a TB of pumpkin with cinnamon and an almond/cinnamon nut crust. Finally I used the magical peanut butter cookie as crust, plain batter, and topped with chocolate ganashe after cooling. I like them much better cooled. I had to bake regular cookies for the family, just so they'd keep their hands off of them. Such a delicious and simple recipe ![]() |

Made some of these over the weekend. My family loved them. Even my 19 Year old. LOL I ask him did he know he was eating low carb. He was like I don't care..
I do need to get some syrups, as I think they would give more flavor.. To bad I didn't think to add some crystal light. |

I made these for the 1st time this evening. They look pretty good and look like what they are supposed to from descriptions I read here. I didn't put enough in the muffin cups though so I ended up having enough left to do 7 mini muffins. I couldn't add to the big ones because I did 2 different flavors and didn't want 1 flavor to have a lot more in the cups. At least I know that next time I can add more in them!
I ate one of the minis before it cooled off and it was pretty good! Can't wait to taste them cold now! Giant Eagle has Philly cream Cheese on sale for $1 so I am going to stock up!! I am thinking of doing a version with spinach and artichoke hearts (obviously taking the sweeteners out!). I will also have to get a couple different DaVinci syrups at Wal Mart this week!

Struggling with Cheesecake
Le sigh. Cheesecake shouldn't be a hard low carb recipe. But for me, it has been.
I have used three different recipes in the past two weeks, including this one, and I'm not at all happy with the outcome. I want a very smooth, velvety texture, but I'm getting something sort of eggy, cheesey and wet instead. Even though I'm letting them chill for days at a time. The best version so far was this one in the microwave, of all things. But it still wasn't perfect. I just don't understand the science of baking. I don't understand what effect more or less eggs has on the batter or more or less sour cream, etcetera. So frustrated. |

She has posted very precise instructions, and there was a running thread of people's comments and tweaks. If you haven't tried it, I urge you to do so, and use no substitutions the first time around! It is really a heavenly velvety smooth cheese cake. ![]() |

Cream Cheese Muffins
Someone made these in the microwave. Would anyone know what page that microwave recipe (version) appears?
I've always wanted to try this recipe and right know I have all the ingredients to do so. Thanks, Nikki |

Click here > #108 I've made these. I was not sure about nuking them, but I really liked the way they tured out. I used the silicone mini muffin pans. (24) I like to use Caramel DaVinci. Here is a note I made on the recipe in my MasterCook: I made Betsy's recipe. #221 But I put them in mini muffin pans, and nuked them. I cooked them 2 minutes. Checked them (didn't know what to look for). Cooked 35 seconds. Looked at them/ (again ?) Cooked them 30 more seconds. Then I let them sit in the micro for a few minutes, then took out and sat on the counter to cool. I only got 20 mini muffins, and most of them weren't very full. Looks like there about 2 carbs in 4 of these minis. May want to try 1/4 cup PolyD next time to try to increase volume. Doesn't seem to add noticeable net carbs. (I can't remember if I tried them with the 1/4 cup PolyD. Tho I really like these, It's been a while since I made them.)
