Very tasty! I made this and took it to Sunday school for breakfast, and it got rave reviews. I wish I'd cubed the cream cheese a bit smaller, but other than that, it was really good. I did find it took a good bit longer than 35-40 minutes at 325 degrees to cook - after that length of time, at that temperature, it was still really mushy. I turned the heat up to 375 degrees and baked for another 20 minutes, and that did the trick.
