This is a real keeper. I sprinkled sugar on the top and used sliced almonds. I thought I would be the only one in our house to try this ut it was gone in a flash with requests to make it again soon.

    O M G...I made this Sunday morning and then died and went to heaven (or so it seemed). You just know this is a keeper. I'm thinking the next time I may try putting some preserves on top of the cream cheese mixture and see how that turns out. Thanks so much for sharing this grrrrreat recipe.
