Very tasty, and they would have been easy to make if I hadn't gotten such big pork chops. Made it a bit of a pain to pound them out. Also they were a tad bit chewey, so I think I'll cut back a little on the baking time when I make them again- because I'll absolutely make these again in the future. Cream cheese leaked out a little, but a majority of it stayed in place. I think next time I may soak my tooth picks first- they set off my smoke detector once the broiler was turned on.
