Recipe Instructions

Toss bread and cranberries in large bowl. Pour cream cheese mixture over bread mixture; toss lightly to coat. Let stand 15 minutes, rearranging bread in bowl occasionally to moisten evenly.

Arrange bread in rows in greased 13- by 9-inch baking dish. Pour any remaining cream cheese mixture over bread. Bake at 350 degrees for 40 to 45 minutes or until golden brown. Serve with Cranberry Maple Sauce.
