Those look so yummy! I talked to Mom last night and she and Grandma were on their way to the store to get the ingredients. I think that I would definitely double the maple cream cheese, since you know it is made with cream cheese! I'm with Ainsley, fingers are also a great vehicle for getting cream cheese things into your mouth....smart girl that Ainsley is!
i might have just licked my screen.
