1 oz would be an eight of a cup, no? 8 oz in one cup divided by 8 = 1oz

I'm no math wizard but I think this is right. I'll sure look like a fool if it's not icon_redface.gif

On your cream cheese, one "block" of cream cheese is 8 oz (typically), so 1 oz would be 1/8 cup. Or you could probably eyeball it and cut your block in half then in quarters then in quarters again and you'd have one oz. - I'd prefer to measure it if possible in a measuring cup.

8oz = 1 cup. 1oz = 1/8 cup, or half of a 1/4 measuring cup.
