Has anyone used the Philadelphia Neufchatel cream cheese to bake with? Any recipes? I hear tastes the same as the regular Philadelphia cream cheese. |

Taste is very similar, but there is less milkfat than regular cream cheese. Because of this you will probably get slightly different results if using this as a substitute in, say, a cheesecake. Other baked goods won't have quite such an impact (ie cheesecake swirl brownies). Do you have a specific recipe in mind that you'd like to substitute with? I'd be interested to hear your results if you do any experimenting! |

so is it basically the "light" version? if that's the case, it's usually the only one i use when cooking or baking- i find that the lighter one is easier to work with. |
