Cheese babka! Does that count as a cheesecake?

Didn't read entire thread so I don't know if it was already mentioned:

Cheese filled cannolis. So good! Buy the ready made cannolis (if available where you live) and fill. Easy peasy.

1 8oz cream cheese
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 bar Rosemary chocolate- melted
5oz whip cream- whipped

Combine first 4 ingredients and then mix with whip. Pipe into cannolis.

I also do a cheesecake ice cream which I freeze in individual dessert cups. Really delicious too. It's from Balabusta's Choice cookbook.

Put a package of Oreos into a food processor. Add 4 oz cream cheese, and keep adding until the consistency looks good enough to be able to roll small balls. Roll into balls and put into freezer for 15 min. Dip into melted chocolate. Drizzle white chocolate over top to make it look fancy

sounds great! what could I use instead of chocolate? cocoa with sugar?

I ordered 3 bricks of cream cheese and instead got 3 lb - so basically double.

What other dessert can I make now that I have 3 extra 8-oz of cream cheese - but I don't have any extra sour cream? I am not looking for another cheesecake.

TY.

Extra cream cheese? You can sell it for double the price you paid! LOL

This is delicious: http://overtimecook.com/2015/1.....umbs/

I use it to fill Torah cannolis for Shavuos:

Also, the pumpkin muffins from the pink kosher by design have a cream cheese filling. They're delicious. I double the filling and use some of it as a topping for pancakes

4 questions on the cream cheese crushed oreos recipe. DO I use whipped cream cheese or block cream cheese? And after I crush the oreos in the food proccessor am I putting them in a bowl and mixing in the cream cheese by hand or adding cream cheese to the food processor? And how much cream cheese do I need approximately? How many balls does this recipe yield?
