Ingredients

Cream Cheese Filling

  • 8 ounces cream cheese softened
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla stevia drops for filling (can be adjusted to taste, see notes for alternative)
  • 1 egg yolk optional

Base Egg Dough:

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 325F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In medium bowl, stir together 8 ounces cream cheese and vanilla stevia (and egg yolk, if using). Transfer to plastic bag or pastry bag.
  • Separate egg whites and yolks into separate mixing bowls.
  • Add stevia, 3 ounces cream cheese and whey protein to yolks. Stir in optional coconut flour, if using. Mix until smooth.
  • Whip eggs whites with cream of tartar until stiff peaks form.
  • Gently fold yolk mixture into beaten whites. This is done by cutting into the mixture several times with a rubber spatula and very gently turn the spatula each time being very careful not to flatten the beaten egg whites. (tips for folding)
  • Spoon 6 mounds of the egg batter onto each prepared baking sheets (12 mounds total). Flatten each mound slightly.
  • Pipe sweetened cream cheese onto the center of each batter circle.
  • Bake at 325°F for 30 minutes.
