As far as taste, this tasted just ok. If I make it again, I will sweeten the cream cheese just a little bit, and also will soften it and spread it a little bit instead of leaving in plops. Also, I will line the pan with foil. It stuck to the bottom of the pan very bad, and even after soaking all day, completely ruined my $40 calphalon pan.
