I am so not a baker.

I managed to fudge this one up somehow.

the ones I put in the muffin pan came out ok visually but were dry as hell. (I did the 350 for 5 min. baking).  the ones I put on the pan came out flat but shiny like meringue and so dry they weren't edible.

I'm going to open new baking powder tomorrow but wow yea...a pastry chef I am not.

Hmmmm...now you got me curious. The only thing I can think of is that the sugar and molasses in the brown sugar caramelized and somehow got with the whey to become harder and drier. That's the best explanation I can give. I bake with brown sugar all the time (holiday cookies, for the divas, etc.) but only with real flour, never with whey.

Tried again.  this time I didn't use any brown sugar and just doubled the splenda.

they still didn't puff up as much as I anticipated. 

is yours a batter or a dough?  Mine is coming out like cake/brownie batter.  they taste a bit salty too, I wonder if I could just leave out the 1/4 tsp salt??

not bad though.  I was able to get 12 mini muffin size out of the recipe.  I used new baking powder.  made sure I followed the directions exactly!

Mine is dough like. VERY sticky. So much so that I had a hard time getting it off the spoon! But they baked up like a dream. I agree about the salt. I put it in mimicking a cookie recipe but mine weren't salty. If they didn't puff up much, use more baking powder. That creates the puff.

omg.....I just made these - I use 3/4 cup chocolate protein powder and 1/4 cup of Click (my addiction) - wow, all I can say is wow.

Now if I or someone could come up with a cream filling like for whoopies pies - these would be perfect.

Thanks so much for sharing.
