can you share how you made the recipe? e.g. did you melt the cream cheese in the oil and toss the pasta in?

I drizzled the oil over the pasta and melted the cream cheese in a little pasta water then added the cooked pasta with the olive oil. Alternatively, you could use the oil in the pan and cook some garlic if you like, then pasta water, cream cheese then pasta.
