    cream cheese

    i have a 250g packet of cream cheese in the fridge & i'm looking for ideas other than a cheesecake. i know i bought it for a specific reason/recipe but i cannot for the life of me remember what it was so i'm looking for inspiration!

    does anyone have some tasty cream cheese recipe ideas they'd like to share? savoury or sweet...

    i think you cn make a pasta sauce with it - like a low fat carbonara - mix it with eggs and then put it in after some peas, mushrooms (bacon if you want it). yum.

    Yum!

    You can mix it with salsa sauce to make a dip. Mix little bits of each together first to see if you like the taste.

    You can mix it with cocoa powder (or milo at a pinch) to make a filling, then use it to stick or stack biscuits together (whatever's in the cupboard)

    You can make a carrot cake and use it for icing (my favourite)

    You could use it to make icing for patty cakes
