Cleochatra's Revoloopsie Rolls (home-made hamburger buns and more) - Page 43

These are awesome no matter what plan you're on! I started South Beach and never thought I'd find a decent bread substitute for phase 1. I used 4 oz. (1/2 of an 8 oz. pkg.) Kraft Philadelphia Reduced Fat Cream Cheese in the recipe, instead of regular cream cheese, and these came out wonderful!

Cleo, if you ever read this, THANK YOU for coming up with this recipe. They are terrific! I can now see why everyone's crazy about them!

Probably can't buy the product any more. . .but if you have some, it works great! I also used cream of tartar.

Netrition has it.

You need to gauge it in your own oven, look at them at 20, 25 min and decide.Ovens can actually vary a little in the actual temp vs the temp dial.

I would have tried a muffin top pan if my absent minded store manager would have picked one up at our other store for me!!!! I have asked him about it 3 times!!! I said if I were this other associate that he favors it would have been there the day after I asked!

its a recipe from lindasue's website....its a stick of butter, half a cup of heavy cream and 24 packets of splenda (equivalent of a cup of sugar) boiled for a few minutes and then you add half a teaspoon of xanthan gum and chill it for a few hours....then when its completely cold, i whipped it up with my blender. it was fantastic! the whole batch is about 29 carbs....and its meant to be about 9 servings

I have to correct my review of the black cherry cake. It was great the second day. Got 2 thumbs up from my husband.

Can someone tell me if these can be frozen?

Thanks

Absolutely! I freeze them every weekend and take out a couple a day so I don't have to worry about baking after work. They turn out great! No loss of taste or texture.

SPECK · 02-18-2008, 06:14 PM

Well I loved them. I had mine with chicken salad. Awesome.

However, mine came out flat because the mixture was to runny. Will keep trying.

Thanks Cleo!

You can just spray really good with Pam, or get a silicone pan liner (Silpat) they are great and last for years.

cleochatra · 02-19-2008, 04:51 PM

I let mine thaw between 30 minutes to an hour, depending on their state of frozen.

Overnight in thr fridge or if I'm in a hurry about 20 seconds in the microwave.

Thanks for the kudos, Jocelyn! I'm sorry. I'm homeschooling my son, and my brain is futzled half of the time these days!

cleochatra · 02-19-2008, 07:37 PM

I just spray with Pam. It works really well. Unless you use muffin tins. Then nothing works because of Murphy's Law.

hippiegirl · 02-19-2008, 08:43 PM

I ran out of Pam and just greased up the pan as if I were making a cake (I used Canola). It worked like a charm!

Michael's sells parchment paper in their cake making section....

Most department stores will have it where they sell cookie sheets and cake pans..

Parchment paper really is the best....just use it over and over...

...

I made a 7 oz cream cheese to 7 eggs batch last night and then had a bacon/cheese/egg McNoMuffin for dinner.....these are the bomb...

Oh! Also look in where they sell the wax paper, aluminum foil, etc. Or if your store sells the baking pans and utensils and such, they may have it there.

I've been making these for a while now and enjoy them. My DD & SIL have just started LCing and don't enjoy the sponge-like texture. I've been adding protein powder to the yolk mixture and find they are more dense. I started with 1 scoop but 2 is even better. Makes for a very dense oopsie, no squishyness here and extra protein
