WOW! Just delicious! This has to be the best white bread recipe I have tried so far.I am always looking for new and unique recipes to try in my bread maker, and this one is now at the top of the list. You have to try this recipe ASAP!I know cream cheese can be expensive,so I always wait for a sale and then pack some away in the freezer for later use. I only used 2 TBS. of sugar and it was perfect.My husband really enjoyed this bread!Oh, and I used 2 tsp. of yeast!Thank you for this recipe Marie!

Great recipe. DH wanted cheese rolls like a local restaurant, so I used no sugar, but 1 tablespoon honey, and shaped into balls, stuffed 1 tablespoon sharp cheddar, and raised and baked normally...total hit!

Can't believe that I have never reviewed this recipe! It is one of my favorites. The dough is very easy to work with. Makes great cinnamon rolls or cinnamon bread! I have even made apple cinnamon bread using some chopping apples in the filling. Just great!
