Mom Tips

You can use regular cream cheese, but the ideal is to use cream cheese for culinary purposes: as it has a different consistency and creaminess, it does not run or drain when exposed to high temperatures, making it ideal for filling pizzas, pies and other dishes. You can find this type of cream cheese in tubes on the refrigerated shelves of good supermarkets.

If you prefer, you can increase the amount of pepperoni.
