Tips

  • Bake on parchment paper and fill the entire baking sheet for crispy cheese.
  • Store brand cream cheese works best as Philadelphia can turn gritty.
  • For even more flavor, use herb and garlic cream cheese.
  • Consider adding smoked cheddar, hot honey, and green onion.
  • Bacon should be watched to prevent charring; cooking time may vary.
