1. BUILD A BETTER BROWNIE
It doesn’t matter if you’re Team Fudgy or Team Cakey (or Team Gluten-Free). Adding cream cheese to the brownie batter makes every bite more rich and dense. Those hypnotic swirls are telling you to take another bite, and you should.
2. CURB THAT CRAB RANGOON CRAVING
This decadent take-out appetizer is literally fried cream cheese. Think about that for a second. Actually, don’t think, just grab another.
5. WHIP UP A CHEESY DIP
Need something to dunk your crunchy pretzels and crisp pita chips into? A warm, party-ready cheese dip is so easy to make, you don’t even need a recipe.
6. ROLL A CHEESE BALL
No, it’s not 1978—the cheese ball is timeless.
7. WHIP UP A CREAM CHEESE FROSTING
Few desserts are as good as a cream cheese frosting–covered carrot cake, but cream cheese frosting is also delicious on chocolate cake or red velvet cake, if that's your thing. Bored with plain frosting? Add lemon zest or a drizzle of maple syrup to it.
8. GLAZE SOME CINNAMON ROLLS
Sugar at breakfast is at its finest in a cinnamon roll topped with a sticky-sweet cream cheese glaze.
9. OR HECK, JUST MAKE A WHOLE CAKE WITH IT
Cheesecake is just a socially acceptable way to eat cream cheese by the spoonful. Cut it up into squares and top with fruit to make it seasonal. Want to experiment? Cut back on the ingredients—you can make an awe-inspiring cheesecake with only three.
10. ENTER YOUR GRILLED CHEESE INTO THE SANDWICH HALL-OF-FAME
Add a layer of cream cheese to your grilled cheese for the creamiest, cheesiest sandwich ever.
If you're counting your calories, choose the whipped, spreadable version of cream cheese over the blocked version, when possible. The composition is the same, but measured by volume (or weight) you can use less and save a few calories.
Happy Spreading & Enjoy!
