I did a little experimenting when I had leftover cream cheese and it was delicious!
It's tasty in a different way from usual almond cream.

It doesn't taste that strongly of cheese, so even people who don't like cheese are fine with this.
If you want a stronger cheese flavor and more acidity from the cheese, try experimenting with the ratio of butter and cheese.

You won't get an upset stomach, but please be aware that this cream is not meant to be be used without cooking it through. For 21 cm [8.3 in] tarts. Recipe by *ai*

Steps

1

Bring the butter and cream cheese to room temperature to soften. If using a microwave, make sure not to overcook.
2

Sift the almond flour quickly. You could just use a fine mesh sieve.
3

Mix the powdered sugar with the butter and cream cheese until blended, soft, and creamy.
4

Add the beaten eggs to Step 3 little by little, mixing well between additions so that it doesn't separate.
5

Add the almond flour from Step 2 to 4 and mix well. You don't need to fold it in carefully.
6

Add lemon juice and any of the A. ingredients to taste, and it's done. Taste the cream and adjust the amount of lemon juice, liqueurs and so on.
7

You can eat it uncooked, but it's meant to be cooked as a filling. Put it into Danish pastries or use as a pie filling...
8

...or try it in a tart shell and bake... this is my favorite.

My "AAlmond Cream Cheese Tart" was made with this.

When it's cut, the inside of the tart is moist as seen here.
11

"Kiraramama" made it with 90 g of cream cheese and 50 g of butter. She says she likes this ratio.
12

As long as the butter and cream cheese together total 140 g, you can vary it as much as you like. Feel free to experiment.

I love almond cream for amandines, but I love this little variation on that too. ^^

is a regular almond cream or crème d'amande. This is delicious, too, so try it in various tarts.
