Note:The recipe as written contains dairy. However, it can be made dairy-free using dairy-free cream cheese and dairy-free whipped "cream" or whipped topping. Cranberry sauce sweetness varies. Adjust the sweetness of the cranberry cream to suit your taste by adding powdered sugar after you whip the cranberry sauce and cream cheese together.
