Question: Faster way to soften cream cheese!?
I need to make something pretty quick with cream cheese and it says softened!. Any advice!?Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
throw it in the microwave for a very short time , but not in the foil!. I'd say start off at 20 seconds and a 10 at a time if needed!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Put it into a ziplock bag, seal the bag, and place it in a bowl of warm water!.

You could also cut up the cheese, put it in the bag and then put it in the warm water!.

I prefer using warm water to microwaves because it's easier to not over heat whatever you're trying to warm up in water!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I would put it in the microwave in a microwave safe container (after removing the outer wrapping)!.!.!.on DEFROST!. It distributes the heat more evenly so you don't have melted parts with ice cold center!. I would recommend probably 40 seconds on defrost!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Stick it in the microwave on a plate or beat it with a rolling pin!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Pop it in the microwave for about 10 seconds nit to long though or it Will melt!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
