Paula this is the Philadelphia cream cheese.



It's not grainy and grey at all though. It's white, thick and nice and creamy

Lucille! WOOHOO!!! That's all I ask for: for every American to try a Baconator, at least once. And for every low-carber to try them once on those rolls.

It was such an emancipating experience. Now, all of a sudden, we're no longer inducting. We're living.

Pretty Paula-- they definitely shouldn't be gray! I hope this next batch comes out perfectly for you!

How about freezing them cleo? Have you heard of anyone doing that?

I even had my mom try it on the Oopsie roll and she said "That's good." and "Now how do you make those?"

girl-- as they are now, they're not crumbly at all. I think they're fairly stable, especially when allowed to cool on a rack. I tend to keep mine at room temperature for a few days before popping them into the fridge, but I live in an extremely dry climate.

Yes. Is that a resealable container? That looks nice. Better than our containers.

An oopsie hint: Definitely take a couple of spoonfuls of the whites and FOLD them into the
yolks to fluff up the yolks..Then DUMP the fluffiefied yolks on top of the whites and FOLD
several times..NOT ALOT until they are mixed up. I LOVE a BIG rubber spatula from Pampered Chef for this..

Also, I think it is helpful to mix the yolks up with the cream cheese with the mixer (after
you have used it for the whites)..The yolks tend to get thicker when you mix them for
several minutes.

I try to always use mine within a week, so I leave them out for 3 days and then pop them into the fridge for the last 4 or so.

Is it possible to overbeat yolks, Carolyn?

I am asking because I've found that the less I mix the eggs and the CC the better it folds in. I'm afraid of over mixing the yolks, because I heard they can be over beat?

I don't mind being corrected here, for sure!

Woohoo, Gina! I am so glad you like them!

I swore I'd never eat another RR after the 80's.... but MAN! A girl's gotta have a burger! I'm just glad I screwed up the recipe!

cheryl-- I don't see why you couldn't! I think they'd be an awesome addition so long as you know how much you can have on your phase of your plan!

Sorry! I have been running around like a chicken mcnoogie without its crunchy outer layer. I have to remind myself that it is ok to look at the recipr board (I'm not a good cook like so many of you are!)

Hi, Elaine! How are you?

Jenny J-- I add only about one third at a time and then lazy 3 about 2 times. Then add more and then more. Or half and then half. It depends on how moist the batter is. Less swirling is more, so minimal is best! My mixture is never evenly-colored!

Carolyn-- Rock on! I am so glad that worked! We're having hot dogs this weekend. Sauerkraut, chopped onion, shredded cheese, chopped pickle.... here I come!

Deanna-- thank you for the very kind compliment! I am so glad you like them! I admit I eat a lot of these, but I always am trying new things, too. I still get my eggs, but without eating scrambled eggs all the time! I like that!

rosethorns-- I am very happy you like these! These are not like the old RRs!

WendyG-- Thank you so very much! Now I need everyone to write my editor and tell him you like me. Maybe he'll publish more of my work! *wistful montage dream sequence*

Let me know how you like these rolls!

Kim-- I love visuals! I have to imagine I'm tasting the food with my brain. sometimes my brain makes faces. Sometimes it doesn't. I just wish I was a better photographer.

Thank you MINTYSHAKE! I really love this recipe. And it handles even the huge Red Robin burgers!

I have read some folks holding off on the Splenda and adding garlic powder or salt instead.

Did you cut one roll in half for the burger?
Or, did you use two rolls?
I was not impressed the first time I ever made these way back when...
These look very good, so I will try it again!!

Thanks for sharing all of what you did.
Your blog is really informative.
I love your picture by picture instructions!

NoSugar-- You use two rolls. I don't think one could be slices amicably.

This is a brand new recipe-- definitely not the old! I accidentally added too much cream cheese, and in doing so, ended up with a brand new roll! These hold together like you wouldn't believe! And no crumbles! And no eggy flavor!

Thank you so much for your compliment!!! I really hope you'll give these a try! We'll kick the old recipes to the curb!
