Did you know that you can make your own fresh butter - the real stuff, which you are allowed to eat on a low carb diet (but can't have the biscuit or potato to go with it).

Fresh Butter

Put one cup of heavy cream in a pint jar. Shake by hand for about 15 minutes. The butter will go through several stages so don't stop too early. When it is solid you will be left with a small amount of liquid in the jar- milk.

I love fresh butter! And this is a neat thing to do with children at Thanksgiving.

Cream Cheese Pumpkin Dessert

12 oz. Philadelphia Cream Cheese
3 large eggs
2 c. pumpkin
1/2 c. Splenda
2 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. allspice

Beat together the cream cheese and pumpkin. Add the eggs and then
the remaining ingredients. Bake in a 9 X 9 inch baking dish at 350
for 30 - 40 minutes (until knife comes out clean).

My husband isn't crazy about cream cheese but if you love cream
cheese you might use more.

It is really good served warm with a bit of French Vanilla Cool
Whip.

Hi Startrek,
Good luck with the diet. Here's another cheesecake recipe for you. I loved this! I'm going to try a peanut butter one also. I'll post it if it turns out okay. Just a word of caution - this is a no-no during induction.

No-Bake Cheesecake

1 4 oz. package of sugar-free gelatin (flavor of your choice, I used Strawberry Kiwi.)

2/3 c. cold water

1/3 c. flavored, carbonated water (or increase the cold water to 1 cup)

12 oz. cream cheese, softened

1/2 c. sour cream

In a saucepan sprinkle gelatin over the cold water. Let set 1 minute and then over low heat stir 1-2 minutes, until gelatin is dissolved. Remove from heat and stir in carbonated water.

Beat together cream cheese and sour cream. Stir in the gelatin and mix well. Chill until set.

Hi Barbara Jean -

Here we are day 3 of Atkins and I'm already going into dessert withdrawals!! LOL No, I'm just kidding, we're doing pretty well actually. But it would be nice to have a "dessert" I can fix for us on special occasions or when we have company. Thanks a bunch for these!
Any others would be soooo appreciated.
Lord bless!
Starr
