Kraft Kitchens Tips

Substitute

Prepare as directed, using PHILADELPHIA Neufchatel Cheese, KRAFT 2% Milk Cheddar Cheese and RITZ Reduced Fat Crackers.

Cooking Know-How

After shaping the cream cheese into the log, wrap in plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator to firm up slightly. This will make it easier to roll in the cereal and to slice for serving. Roll in the crushed cereal just before serving.
