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?

Mock Danish is one of my staples for sure. I SO need some interesting syrup flavors. I GOTTA put an order into netrition.

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.

Welcome to low-carb eating.
The food's not bad here.

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!

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.
