[CnD] Cream Cheese Again?
Hi, Do you all that use cream cheese have consistent results, when it comes to putting it in batter and getting all of the lumps out? it seems that sometimes, I can do this fairly easily and other times, it's not that easy. Any suggestions would be great! Thanks. Claudia Please Sign Petition! I am truly hoping that you can assist me in this matter.

Re: [CnD] Cream Cheese Again?
I have found having the cream cheese nearly room temperature helps with blending. I first cream the cheese before adding it to other ingredients. Mixers work best, but this can be done by hand with a fork, if you are patient. If a recipe calls for sugar and eggs, blend in the sugar and make sure it is smooth before adding in eggs. The cream cheese can be softened in the microwave, but be careful not to over-warm it. If it gets too warm, it will be sort of runny and will not work as well. Try putting it in the freezer for a few minutes, checking after 5 to 10, so it will thicken a bit.
