Mock Danish

Here we have the popular low carb mock danish.

This is a really easy recipe that you can eat for breakfast or dessert. I used to make it all the time when I did Atkins years ago. Top it with sugar free (or regular) syrup or jam.

You could also grate some lemon zest into this, or add cocoa. It's a good base recipe.
