Notes
Mix the eggs with the cream cheese very well until smooth before adding the baking powder. After adding the baking powder, stir only enough to incorporate it. Use a microwave-safe bowl and watch the time, as it may vary depending on the appliance power. The batter becomes soft, so roll it carefully. The filling can be adapted with shredded chicken, fresh cheese, tomato or other ingredients you prefer.
