Notes
Helpful Recipe Tips
- Be sure to use room temperature cream cheese. A quick tip is to just add cream cheese to a bowl of warm water for 10 minutes.
- Store in a sealed refrigerator container for any leftovers.
- When reheating in the microwave remove the stems prior. Not sure why but when I tested this the stems would catch on fire. I don't understand this but learn from my mistakes.
