Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup ricotta cheese, part skim
  • 1 large whole egg
  • 1 large egg yoke
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tbsp unsweetened coco powder
  • 2 tbsps sugar substitute
  • 6 oz reduced fat cream cheese

Directions

  • Pre-heat oven to 350 °F (175 °C). Line 6 regular size muffin cups with paper foil liners.
  • Blend cream cheese and ricotta in a food processor until creamy. Add sugar substitute, egg, egg yoke, vanilla and process until smooth.
  • Divide 1 cup of batter among the 6 muffin cups. Add cocoa powder to the remaining batter and combine. Drop a heaping tablespoon of the cocoa batter into each muffin cup and gently fold to form a swirl.
  • Place the muffin tin in a large roasting pan and fill the pan with hot water to reach half way up the muffin tin. This is called a bain marie.
  • Bake until the cakes are puffed and set, 18-20 minutes.
  • Remove from the bain marie and cool at room temperature.
  • Refrigerate until chilled, about 2 hours. Bon Appetite!
  • Note: based on recipe from the South Beach Diet, Quick and Easy Cookbook.
