I absolutely LOVE this recipe! Definitely rich though. You'll only want small slices. I'd lost my recipe and been looking all morning to try and find it again. So glad I found it! Thanks!

So easy to make and tastes elegant. I will use it at Christmas for a fine ending for dinner. Thin piece will be plenty...add a touch of whipped cream with couple of fresh raspberries and a mint leaf.

Not certain how its going to turn out, but I made a huge mistake and read the directions in a hurry. It calls for "2 (3oz)Packages of Cream Cheese. I m so used to recipes calling 8 oz a package, that I have enough filling for 4 cheese cakes

Hi Carolyn,

You need to use two (3 ounce) packages of cream cheese.

I had this at a dinner party recently and it is OUTSTANDING, but need to know if it is 2 three ounce or 2 eight ounce packages of cream cheese?

Last time I made this, I made the same mistake as Bill, above. The recipe is correct: use 6oz. of cream cheese.
