There are so many mentions of cream and/or cheese in an MSE search that things get a bit lost.
The first page of this google search of MSE for cream cheese should start you off nicely...

Stir it into tomato based sauces for yummy pasta / chicken.I'd rather be a could-be if I cannot be an are; because a could-be is a maybe who is reaching for a star. I'd rather be a has-been than a might-have-been, by far; for a might have-been has never been, but a has was once an are – Milton Berle0

thanks everyone,
I knew I could count on you all coming up with some fab ideas :T,the cheese cake idea sounds nice but I might try to resist :eek: as it is healthy low fat cheese,then again maybe not :rolleyes: .0 -
Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, just remembered another fave.
Flavour it up with some pesto, then use it to stuff chicken breasts, and then wrap stuffed breast in bacon / parma ham / similar and bake in oven.
Delish. :drool:I'd rather be a could-be if I cannot be an are; because a could-be is a maybe who is reaching for a star. I'd rather be a has-been than a might-have-been, by far; for a might have-been has never been, but a has was once an are – Milton Berle0 -
mix it with herbs and/or chopped onions and fill a jacket potato with it.
Or, mix it with a little bit of icing sugar, mixed spice and crushed pineapple and use it to top a carrot cake.
Or, mix in a little liqueur (cointreau's nice), chopped apricots (pref having left them to marinate in more liqueur [or orange juice]) and stuff the mixture into some pitted dates.0 -
Lovely made into a pate by mixing in some smoked mackerel- cheap too!0

This isn't healthy but
cream cheese
icing sugar (enough to make it quite stiff)
some melted chocolate
I used to call this toenail fudge - can't remember where i got the recipe from, except that we started making it when philadelphia first came out.Still wish I could buy a TARDIS instead of a house!0 -
Another naughty one:
Mix in 2 passion fruit and icing sugar to taste with the cheese, spread thickly on top of shortbread and top with a stawberry!!! Divine!Accepted offer on our house - Sept 2006
