ingredients
-
Wet ingredients
- 1 cup Splenda sugar substitute
- 1⁄2 cup canned pumpkin (not pie filling, but pumpkin)
- 1⁄4 cup brown Sugar Twin
- 3 tablespoons blue bonnet light margarine (or I can't believe it's...yadda...yadda...)
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
-
Dry Ingredients
- 5 scoops vanilla whey protein powder
- 2 1⁄2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1⁄4 teaspoon salt
-
Filling
- 16 ounces neufchatel cheese (1/3 less fat cream cheese)
- 1⁄2 cup Splenda sugar substitute
- 4 tablespoons sugar free caramel syrup
directions
- Mix together wet ingredients well. Sift in dry ingredients. Mix until blended.
- So once I did that I had to figure out how to make a long, flat cake. Seemed to me the best way to do it was to line a cookie sheet w/ foil, spray it down and cook the cake on that. So that's precisely what I did. And I baked on 350 for 10 minutes. Yes, only 10 minutes.
- Now it is VERY important with roll cakes to let the cake cool. I know you're excited. I was too. But we had to let the thing cool! The cooling process gave me time to contemplate what the heck I was gonna fill this puppy with. I had this whole grand scheme in my head involving ricotta cheese and cream cheese and all that jazz but -- being that we just had a blizzard and I was not willing to trek out in the snow to procure ricotta -- the cream cheese would have to do.
- Once I took the thing out of the oven I needed to transfer it so I could peel the backing.
- Then I lined the first cookie sheet with plastic wrap and transfered the cake back onto it. There -- now we're in the right place. So I iced the thing (and it looked so pretty and flat -- I was so mesmerized that I forgot to take a pic at this stage). So here came the real test: could a protein cake roll?

Now I post all recipes I've tried or would like to try. I'm actually making it my goal to try almost all the recipes I've posted as soon as I can. I love food and I love to eat and try different recipes. My favorite course is dessert. I love sweets! This leads me to that I did have Gastric Bypass surgery on July 25th 2008. On that note I love baking and cooking a priceless gift passed down from my grammy who I dearly loved and miss deeply. My grammy passed away 1/15/07. She was a wonderful cook and baker and taught me many things and the most valueable things was how to be a wonderful cook and baker like her. I really enjoy searching for new recipes especially here on Zaar. I'm always finding and adding to my cookbook new and exciting recipes. I also enjoy posting recipes here on Zaar as well. I really love collecting different cookbooks. I have over a 100 and growing! I collect mostly Taste Of Home & community cookbooks. The minute I get a cookbook home I sit down and I read my cookbooks from front to back like novels. I work for the Elmira City School District and YWCA. I'm raising my 8 yrs old newphew. I'm a part time college student studing Early Childhood Education, but taking time off and hoping to return soon. I live in Elmira, New York where famous writer Mark Twain did some of his writing and he once lived. I have 1 cats Samantha and 1 dog our newest member MOO MOO (my nieces dog) who are my children as I do not have any human children of my own. I lost four of my very dear children (kitty's) Callie June 2007, Miss Kitty in March 2010, my dog Angel in December 2010, and my other cat Chase in September 2011. I'm recently married on August 12th 2010. I love spending time with my niece 9 yrs old and my newphews 7 & 8 yrs old. I enjoy couponing and trading coupons. I love the internet as there's so much to look at online even though you know where I spend most of my time! I enjoy going to yard sales and estate sales every spring - fall. I love gardening and have many different pretty flowers.</p>
