Where 232 g comes from
USDA FoodData Central: 1 cup of “Cheese, cream” = 232 g. FDC 173418
King Arthur Baking ingredient weight chart (“Cream cheese”): 227 g per cup. Chart
This page uses 232 g (USDA). The two sources differ by 5 g (2.16%): that gap is about how firmly the cup is filled, not an error in either.
A cup of cream cheese is 232 g in USDA's data. US blocks are 8 oz (227 g), so one block is almost exactly one cup.
How to measure cream cheese by the cup
Press it firmly into a dry measuring cup with the back of a spoon, then level the top. It should hold the cup's shape when turned out.
In the UK and Australia: full-fat soft cheese. Metric cups there hold 250 ml, so a metric cup of cream cheese weighs about 245 g.
