Ingredients
1/4 cup fat-free liquid egg substitute
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. vanilla extract
3 tbsp. fat-free ricotta cheese
1 no-calorie sweetener packet
2 tsp. mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 light hot dog bun
2 tsp. light whipped butter or light buttery spread
1/2 tsp. powdered sugar
Optional topping: sugar-free pancake syrup
Directions
In a wide bowl, mix egg substitute, cinnamon, and 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract.
In a small bowl, mix ricotta cheese, sweetener, and remaining 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract. Fold in chocolate chips.
Open bun without separating the halves. Spoon ricotta mixture onto one half and lightly press to seal. Slice into four "nuggets."
Bring a skillet sprayed with nonstick spray to medium-high heat. Add butter and let it coat the bottom. Meanwhile, coat nuggets on all sides with egg mixture.
Cook nuggets, flipping occasionally, until golden brown on all sides, 3 to 4 minutes.
Serve sprinkled with powdered sugar and enjoy!
