Cream Cheese Banana Bread

by Vanessa on September 11th, 2010

Hunnie made a comment to me the other day about how almost all my food contains cream cheese. I angrily happily replied “Well if you don’t like it well then don’t eat it!” Shortly after that I went through by book of saved recipes and realized (although I will never admit it to him) he was right! Needless to say I am trying going to change that but only after I made this bread. Oh and did I mention I didn’t tell him this recipe had cream cheese in it!! The things I do for cream cheese!!
