I don’t know about you, but during the holiday season, my cream cheese consumption increases drastically. Throughout the year, I occasionally enjoy it slathered on a toasted bagel or stuffed inside cream cheese wontons. However, during the stretch from Thanksgiving to New Year’s Eve, I find myself buying it in bulk.
Whether you’re icing a red velvet cake with tangy cream cheese frosting, whipping up a silky chocolate cheesecake, or forming a pecan-covered cheeseball for a crowd, you can never go wrong with the rich and versatile soft cheese.
Recently, Trader Joe’s shoppers spotted a unique cream cheese on shelves, and it’s already receiving rave reviews from fans.
