Great recipe, exceeded expectations. Easy to make and not a lot of ingredients. Doubled the recipe for a church breakfast meeting and everyone loved it, had numerous requests for the recipe. Only used half the cream cheese because I didn't know the groups preferences.

Love this recipe, but the first time was lacking something, so I added brown sugar and in order to make sure the cream cheese melts. I let it sit out for a bit before using it and then let the pan warm up to room temp for about an hour prior to baking.

Easy to prepare and you can substitute Splenda for the sugar and a sugar-free syrup for a diabetics delight!

Fantastic and the most delicious and easy to make breakfast and is easily adapted for a diabetic by using Splenda for sugar and a sugar-free syrup. Plenty of eggs for protein. 5 star recipe - Steve from Kansas
