In step 2, it says to add all ingredients. But it step 5, it says to add the cream cheese. Should I assume I don’t add the cream cheese in step 2 then?
Thanks Liz, I have edited the recipe, and certainly appreciate you letting me know… I sometimes have an oops! Happy Crocking!
I made this once & it was a big hit. My husband requested it again, and to make more for leftovers. Could just double the recipe & keep the same cooking time (8 hrs) on low?
Also, how should I read the nutrition facts? Are those for the whole recipe or just a serving? If the latter, what is a serving?
Thanks so much!
Glad to see you are making this again! In the upper right hand corner it states how many servings, which is 4! The nutritional facts are for per serving, so if you double it stays the same. Yes same crocking time, but a rule of thumb is to make sure the crock is 1/2 to 3/4 full for it to crock properly. So if you double make sure you follow the rule of thumb! Thank you for the question, and Happy Crocking!
