Thanks for the welcome, Barb! So many good ideas here for this one simple, "traditional" Atkins recipe.

Oh - this morning was a mock danish with a tablespoon of banana syrup, a sprinkle of cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice, and about a third of an oz. of pecans. Heaven. Who needs banana bread?

My twist on the mock danish:

1 package Cream Cheese (softened)
3 eggs (room temp)
2 T Vanilla
2 T Cinnamon
4 pkt Splenda
1 Bar Choco Perfection
3 T sf Crunchy peanut butter


Melt chocolate in microwave (I do 2 pc.s = 90 sec) DO NOT OVERHEAT!

Mix all ingredients except peanut butter in pyrex bowl until consistency is smooth.

Microwave ~5-6 min.

"Frost" with Peanut Butter.

Refridgerate over night.

This turned out very well. - Try not to over-indulge.

Well the regular (cinnamon/vanilla) one left me uninterested. BUT I put 1 teaspoon of cocoa powder and 1 teaspoon of coconut extract in it and YUM! almost like german chocolate cake!

I prefer not to use microwave ovens and we dont actually have one in the house but I tried the mock danish recipe yesterday in the regular oven and it came out great. I divided the recipe ( using 1 egg and 3 oz cream cheese) over three muffin cups lined witht he paper cups and baked it in a 350 oven for about 20 minutes. Okay warm but FANTASTIC cold. Thanks!

Talking Re: Mock Danish

So I tried the mock danish and it is very good. I need to adjust the amount of egg I put into it, I think. Maybe I'll just make it with egg whites as suggested earlier on this thread. It is something that I would eat sometimes though because it is a little too decadent for my tastebuds at the moment. Maybe I need to tone down the splenda as well. Anyway, thanks for making my Low Carb lifestyle even more interesting.

I tried an experiment with my basic Mock Danish recipe, which I also make like a cake with Atkins Bake Mix and Flax Meal. I made it without any sweetener or flavorings and cut it in half after cooking it the regular way, and toasted it. Not bad for a bread substitute. It was really good with no sugar added strawberry jam. One of the halves kinda fell apart in my toaster, so the next time I do it, I will try it in my toaster oven. It needs quite a bit of toasting to get it to brown at all like toast does. (I think I added coconut flour too, which I sift first before using. - I get this from netrition.com)

This has a lot of potential!!!!!

Ophelia, are you using egg substitute instead of real eggs???

No egg substitute just one lg egg. I think that I need to just use the egg white. I'll try it that way on a later date. The danish is just a little too rich for me.

Default Mock Danish Massacre

I just did a very bad thing. I wanted a mock Danish but, since I haven't bothered to write up the recipe and was too lazy to boot up my computer, I just tried to remember the recipe. Two bad things happened. I remembered that you were supposed to warm the cream cheese and the egg was supposed to be at room temperature. So, I thought, why not do them at the same time! Bad idea. The egg yolk sort of cooked, so I had these little pieces of egg yolk in my cream cheese. But, I soldiered on since I didn't want to throw away three ounces of perfectly good cream cheese. But then, instead of what I now see was supposed to be two packets (four teaspoons) of Splenda, I somehow had it in my head that it was 12 packets of Splenda. So, yes, I did put six tablespoons of Splenda in my little mock danish. Then I ate it, along with some whipped cream made with another couple teaspoons of Splenda. Then I booted up my computer and thought I'd check how close my memory was. Oh my. I've totally OD'd on Splenda. Plus, I've put about 30 extra carbs into my body. Whaaaaaaaaa!

I'm not feeling so good.

That's about as close as you can get to a real danish without a bakery!

Outside of the bits of egg, I bet it was good tho!

In my experience, I have found that the main reason you want the egg room temp is because if you add a cold egg to the warm cream cheese, some of the cream cheese will "set" back into small clumps. What I do is after the cheese is warm, I make sure its real creamy, then add a Tbs or so of heavy cream and stir it some more. I found that even if the cream is cold, the cheese wont clump up. After those two are well creamed, I add the cold egg, splenda, a little sfvs and it all blends together real nice like.

I am finally learning to like these things. I just haven't been crazy about the combos I've tried. The one I made this morning was pretty decent. Used less cream cheese to cut down on the carbs.

1 oz. cream cheese
1 egg
1 t cocoa powder
.5 t vanilla
Couple squirts of Fiberfit
One pump DaVinci sf caramel syrup

Had this with some bacon and drizzled a little DaVinci sf Pancake Syrup over it all.

Like you, Lavender, I tend to use less cream cheese. Also, I usually add a TB of golden flaxmeal to the mix. Makes it a bit more like a baked dish and gives me all those nice omega oils.

Ah, I'll have to try that, Maggie. This morning I added just under half a scoop of Aria chocolate protein powder. Tasted almost brownie-like!

I also finally made a OMM that I like - had tried a few and just didn't like 'em. Turned out I was probably not nuking them on high enough heat.
