made up another batch of these yummy treats..
and made a few minor adjustment.
First don't OVERBEAT THe Creams cheese egge mixture.. just until it comes together and isn't lumpy
Second.. I cut the cooking time down to 12-13 mintes.. came out much better... the last batch I over browned the bottoms.. but I was still able to gooble them down..hehehe..

did some online searching and here was a suggestion.. will have to keep this in mind as I try different things

One carb per muffin seems too good to be true, but it is true. These are a terrific breakfast muffin and can be tweaked for a variety of flavors. During induction, use DaVinci syrups in a variety of flavors for a delicious change of pace.

Here are a few examples for adding variety to the Atkins muffins:

¼ c. coconut DaVinci and 1 tsp. coconut extract

¼ c. coconut DaVinci with 1 tsp. pineapple extract (tastes like Pina Colada)

¼ c. Hazelnut DaVinci with a sprinkle of cinnamon

¼ c. Eggnog DaVinci with a sprinkle of nutmeg on top before baking (This is wonderful for Thanksgiving or the Christmas Holidays.)

Once induction is over, this recipe can be adapted to OWL (ongoing weight loss). Here is one variation for after induction:

Atkins Pumpkin Cheesecake Muffins

2 (8 oz.) of cream cheese
1 can pumpkin
1/4 c. granulated Splenda or 1 tsp. Fiberfit (liquid Splenda)
1/4 c. Davinci praline or hazelnut syrup
1/4 c. sour cream
3 eggs
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. ginger
1/4 tsp. cloves

I can remember when I used sour cream and egg whites whipped to make the cheese cake fluffy. I also used pecan crust with cinnamon. It was an awesome recipe that I created.

I wouldn't put the sugar free jam on them, if it were me, but if you are on a more lenient low carb diet, then go right ahead!

I usually sprinkle with cinnamon and splenda.
