A treat to quell those sweet cravings.
Ingredients
Directions
- In a microwave safe bowl, microwave cream cheese and butter for about 30 seconds or until soft.

- Note: if using canned pumpkin, make sure to get pure pumpkin rather than pumpkin pie filling. The only ingredient listed on the can should be "pumpkin".

Hello?!? One serving, with a quarter-cup of CREAM CHEESE plus a TBS of BUTTER?!? What planet are they living on? Since when is this a "diet" treat?!? I would certainly try it using fat-free cream cheese and diet margarine, but it might not taste the same -- don't know.

I actually tried it with 1/2 cup low fat ricotta and 1 tsp splenda brown sugar, it was still yummy!

That is much faster than my own Atkins-friendly version. Thanks.

I LOVE pumpkin. On Atkins it is hard to get Vitamin A and this is loaded full. I have never tired with cream cheese--YUMMY!! Plus it has good fiber. This is so much better than taking vitamin pills.

I think this recipe would be ok in moderation, everything in it you can eat in phase one. Sounds good too.

Sounds yummy but I don't think this recipe would be considered Fat Flush friendly in phase one or two, because of the dairy and fat content.
