"Recipe from the inside of a Philadelphia Cream Cheese Packet. This could easily be made gluten-free by using a gluten-free cookie similar to a ''butternut snap'' and a blended gluten-free flour in place of the regular wheat flour.You could use a packet of light cream cheese and splenda to make the slice a little lighter. Serves 8. Slice is made in 9cm x 20cm loaf tin"
