Ingredients

• 1 8oz package cream cheese cubed
• 1/2 cup milk
• 3 tbsp cannabutter

• 6 egg whites only
• 1/4 tsp cream of tartar

• Fold cream cheese mixture into egg white mixture until well mixed; pour into the prepared pan. Place pan inside a larger baking dish and fill the baking dish with water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the cake pan.
