Step 2:

  1. Cut a block of room-temperature cream cheese in half. You will need 4 oz. for the recipe.
  2. Cut the 4 oz. block of cream cheese into quarters.
  3. Add the four quarters of cream cheese to the bowl with the cookie crumbs.

 

Step 3:

  1. Mix the cream cheese and cookie crumbs together to make batter. Tip: You may want to use your hands to mix the batter together.
  2. Add two drops of pink or blue food coloring to the batter and mix. Note: Add more food coloring for a brighter mixture.
