Pumpkin Custard

Pumpkin Custard

2 oz. cream cheese          0 carbs
2 T. pumpkin (not pie filling)      1 ½ carb
1 egg               1 carb
1 T. Torani or DaVinci Caramel           0
¼  t. vanilla            ?
½  t. xylitol            0
½  t. pumpkin spice         ?

Soften cream cheese, stir, add egg, and mix well. Add remaining ingredients and mix well. Nuke for approximately 2 min or until set in the center.  Top with Redi-Whip, sugar-free syrup or both.  ;D

You can mix and nuke in the same dish, measuring cup, etc. – I just used a cereal bowl.

The pumpkin flavor was subdued, not strong – more like a pumpkin custard.  Probably adding more pumpkin and/or spice would make it taste for Pumpkin pie-like, but I was trying to keep the carbs down.  My guesstimate carb count is 2 ½ - 3 carbs ~ not sure on the vanilla and spices.

An afterthought...I bet some pecans on, in, or under would help it POP...

...HAPPY FALL...
