Notes
Always double-wrap your packet to prevent leaks.
Let the cream cheese soften at room temperature first.
Do not overfill the packet. Leave room for steam.
Cook on indirect heat for best results.
Use heavy-duty foil for strength.
Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat in a 350°F oven or microwave.
Freeze the sealed, uncooked packet for up to 2 months.
