Hi there, In the picture above for the cream cheese ingredients. Could you please tell me what is in the measuring cup? I don’t see any milk or liquid for the cream cheese topping.

Hi, Fay. That layer has cream cheese, sugar (in the cup), eggs and vanilla. That’s all it is. Once you blend it, it becomes moist and creamy. Enjoy. This is a terrific recipe.
