For the love of cream cheese.

This weekend’s sweet treats are both from Bake or Break, a dessert blog I’ve been reading lately.

Chocolate Cream Cheese Pound Cake I made this last night. It came together very quickly and it tastes great so it’s a pretty rewarding recipe. It also has six eggs, a cup of butter and an eight-ounce package of cream cheese so you can feel really good about yourself while stuffing your face.

Almond Pear Cream Cheese Tart This is so ridiculously easy and tastes so unbelievably good (especially for something easy!) that you’re a fool not to try this recipe out. I ended up adding a half-teaspoon of almond extract to the cream cheese mixture and I have no regrets.
