3 Cheese Manicotti - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    12 manicotti
    4 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
    1 (8 ounce) container chive & onion cream cheese
    4 cups spaghetti sauce, to taste
    1/2 cup parmesan cheese
Preparation
    Cook shells according to the package directions.
    Rinse well in cool water and dry.
    While the pasta is cooking, mix together the cream cheese and 3 cups of Mozzeralla cheese.
    Stuff shells with cream cheese mixture (I use my hands to roll a\"snake\" of mix and slide it right in the manicotti tube.) Put a thin layer of sauce on the bottom of a 13 by 9 baking dish.
    Place manicotti in dish and cover with remaining sauce.
    Sprinkle 1 cup of Mozzarella over the top.
    Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes at 375.
    Uncover, sprinkle with parmesan cheese, and bake for 15 minutes more.
