Brownie mix, prepare for your debut in cheesecake. Cream cheese is your co-star, with applesauce making a surprise cameo appearance to help make this recipe a smart one.
We used better-for-you ingredients to make creamy caramel-vanilla pudding with sweet cream cheese topped with apples and nuts a smart way to serve dessert.
These easy-to-make buttery cookies owe part of their richness to the cream cheese. The dough is shaped into balls, baked and sprinkled with powdered sugar.
The idea to make these popped into my mind when I made **Jubes** Quick Gluten Free Scones #220200 for the first time. Instead of cutting out scones I rolled the flattened dough and thought that actually I could have filled it. So I made a second batch of dough and made up my own version of cinnamon roll filling. I really liked that they were not overly sweet as the dough is not sweetened. As usual, I used rice syrup, but will suggest honey which might be slightly sweeter. Instead of the pine nuts you can of course use any other nut you like. I thought about pecans and maple syrup for the filling - if anyone feels like trying that, please tell me how it turned out!
