Default Oopsie with the Oopsie rolls!

I just made the oopsie rolls for the first time. Mine came out very thin and flat. So much so that they were hard to get off the cookie sheet. Anyone ever have this problem? I am thinking maybe I did not put enough cream cheese in since I just "eyed" up the amount??? It was very creamy when I put the yolk mixture into the whites. Not chunkier looking like the pics on Cleochatra's site. Any help would be appreciated!! Thanks.

I've had some issues with them. I've found that when I've sprayed the cookie sheet the batter goes everywhere, but if I don't the batter stays nice and tight. Also, be sure to beat your egg whites until you've got stiff peaks (another problem of mine).

Be sure the egg whites are whipped until you have stiff peaks. This does make a difference in how they come out.

As far as the amount of cream cheese, I've varied the amounts I've used. The less you use the more "eggy" they seem to come out.

Also, you could try to use parchment paper on the cookie sheet. I've never used a cookie sheet...I use muffin top pans when I make them.

Hope that helps.

The first time I made them, they came out flat and thin too! The second time I undercooked them, but the third time was a charm!!! It was all in the beating of the egg whites and making sure the peaks were stiff.
I've had success ever since and made the "Baconator" with them and they were amazing!!!
