Lemon Dessert Mix

1 package Lemon Dessert Mix (comes with 2)
1 8 ox light cream cheese
1 small jar marshmallow cream

In small bowl, soften cream cheese and marshmallow cream in microwave on defrost or low heat  until soft enough to mix together easily. Add Lemon Mix and stir until creamy.  Refrigerate until chilled about 2 hours.  Serve with Vanilla Wafers.  For the sweet/salty fans, serve with pretzel sticks.
