I received a couple of files of cookie press recipes from my HD. I was going through them, editing spelling and adding °F etc. I was looking at this recipe, and it doesn't make sense to me that it would call for 1 pkg of cream cheese, but then state that it should be 3 oz. I don't know if I've ever seen a 3 oz package of cream cheese. I could see how it would be possible that if the recipe was originally hand written that someone could see an 8 as a 3.
