Maple Rolls with Cheesecake Icing

Slightly adapted from www.defragged.com

Ingredients:
3 packets of Medifast Maple and Brown Sugar Oatmeal (3 Fuelings)
3/4 tsp baking powder (1 1/2 Condiments)
1 tsp maple extract (1 Condiment)
1 packet Stevia (1 Condiment)
1 tsp vanilla extract (1 Condiment)
1/4 cup water added slowly

Directions:
Mix all dry ingredients and then add vanilla and water slowly. I used just over 1/4 cup of water. The dough should stick together but be not too dry or too wet.
Divide dough into 3 balls approximately the same size. Place on greased cookie sheet (non-fat cooking spray) and flatten so they are approximately 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick. I used three individual glass dishes such as Pyrex because the dough was too crumbly. Bake at 350 degrees for approximately 15 minutes. Insert toothpick to determine if it is done. It should come out clean and the edges should be firm, but not too dry. Let cool.
