Notes

For best results, refrigerate for at least 30 minutes after forming your flag shaped block. This allows the cream cheese to firm back up enough that you can spread your frosting much more easily!
If you're adding m&ms for the flag look in these images, wait until just before serving so you don't get as much bleed from the moisture in the refrigerator.
Store for up to three days, tightly wrapped in the refrigerator.
