Total Time:7 mins

Servings: 1

Ingredients

2 oz Cream cheese
1 large Egg
0.5 tsp Vanilla extract
1 tbsp Granulated sweetener (e.g., erythritol or stevia)
0.25 tsp Ground cinnamon (optional, for topping)

Directions

Step 1

Place the cream cheese in a microwave-safe bowl or mug. Microwave for about 10-15 seconds to soften slightly.

Step 2

Add the egg, vanilla extract, and granulated sweetener to the bowl with the softened cream cheese.

Step 3

Whisk all the ingredients together until smooth and well-combined. If there are small lumps of cream cheese, that’s okay.

Step 4

Microwave the mixture on high for 1-2 minutes, stopping every 30 seconds to check and prevent overcooking. The mixture should set but not become too dry.

Step 5

Sprinkle ground cinnamon on top for added flavor, if desired.

Step 6

Let the mock Danish cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm with a spoon!
