Although the recipe indicates to use a one ounce package of cream cheese, I don't think that's what was intended so I used 8 oz. Also added some black pepper to the dip. The result tasted fine. I didn't use a bread bowl and just baked mine in a casserole for 20 minutes at 350. Thanks for the recipe.
