This is a wonderful breakfast treat! I would not have thought to add cream cheese to oatmeal but it gave it a very nice rich and creamy taste - I did add some sugar and with that and the vanilla this really did have a nice cheesecake flavor. I didn't have any graham crackers so crumbled a shortbread Girl Scout cookie on top and that tasted great. Thanks for sharing your recipe!
