I see butter in the ingredients but in the directions. Do you just beat it with the cream cheese?
Oh yes. I fixed it in the blog post. Thank you.
This was delicious! I added 1 cup of chopped pecans to mine. It was definitely “heavenly”! 😉
Oh, we love to hear that you enjoyed it. Great idea to add pecans. I will try that next time.
