Cream cheese
Used in 3 recipes on RecipeWiki.
Cream cheese is a soft, fresh cheese with a mild tang and a smooth, spreadable texture. It is used both as a savoury ingredient and as the base of baked and chilled desserts. Bring it to room temperature before mixing so it blends without lumps, especially when making a cheesecake filling or frosting. Full-fat cream cheese sets more firmly and tastes richer; reduced-fat versions contain more water and can make a topping loose.
