Guest guest Posted September 3, 2000 Report Share Posted September 3, 2000 HJ: I will, every so often, put in 1/4 c. heavy cream and a smidge of some davinci syrup or some fruit and whip it up until it's real thick, almost to butter thickness.

Guest guest Posted September 3, 2000 Report Share Posted September 3, 2000 How about a single-serving baked custard? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 3, 2000 Report Share Posted September 3, 2000 I usually just make a protein shake when I want something sweet. Make it in the blender with a bunch of ice cubes and it comes out really " treaty. " My current favorite is to use the apple cider burst from walmart as the liquid, vanilla shake mix, and a few shakes of apple pie spice. I add a little cream if I can spare the carbs and it's kinda like apple pie a la mode. :-) Beth in Georgia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 3, 2000 Report Share Posted September 3, 2000 What is apple cider burst? And where in the store is it located?

Guest guest Posted September 3, 2000 Report Share Posted September 3, 2000 It's with the Sam's choice drinks. By the chips and sodas and such, usually at the front of the store. They make a bunch of no cal/no sugar/lc drinks. The ruby red grapefruit burst is my favorite to drink straight (I love grapefruit juice) but I use several of the other flavors for shakes, key lime, tropical fruit, apple cider. There are two different varieties of these drinks and I don't remember which is which but they are all there together. Beth What is apple cider burst? And where in the store is it located?

Guest guest Posted September 3, 2000 Report Share Posted September 3, 2000 Aviva, I just asked my son as he is the resident cream whipper here . . . Our hand held mixer lets you use only one beater. He uses one beater and then mixes it right in a fairly small tupperware container. If you have leftovers (yeah, like that happens here), you can just plop the top on and stick it in the fridge.

Guest guest Posted September 3, 2000 Report Share Posted September 3, 2000 >>I will, every so often, put in 1/4 c. heavy cream ...<< , What do you use to whip 1/4 c. heavy cream? I think even my hand-held mixer wouldn't be able to handle such a small amount, not to mention the big Kitchenaid. I wish I knew how to do it, because whipping 1 whole cup is a very very bad idea for me ;-). Thanks Aviva Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 3, 2000 Report Share Posted September 3, 2000 HJ, Remember Nan's recipe for microwave cheesecake in a cup? That was a single serving recipe (which I don't think I have). Does anyone else remember it? And, speaking of Nan, where is she anyway? Come out Nan . . . we're looking for you, Honey! Terry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 3, 2000 Report Share Posted September 3, 2000 2 oz cream cheese, 1/2 cup whipping cream, 1 teaspoon cocoa powder, 1 packet AS Beat until mousselike. Kirstie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 4, 2000 Report Share Posted September 4, 2000 Thanks, ! My problem is that those two servings are more than likely to become one serving. I always admire your posts when you describe how much control you have over portion sizes! Gives me something to aspire to. Meantime, if I'm gonna do it, I'll stick with 1/4 cup at a time. In fact, I'm still debating over whether I should even bring any heavy cream into the house ... Aviva >>you could set out two of those tiny rubbermaid containers and whip 1/2 cup. That would be 3.2 carbs and if you divided it up into those two servings you'd be fine!<< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
