Dips & Condiments
Yes, another flavoured cream cheese recipe from me – entertaining at home has become quite the normal finally, and I have discovered the pleasure have having various cheeses, condiments and crackers in the fridge and pantry – ready to be served within a jiffy.
When I got a pack of fresh rosemary, I had to find a way to make it last very long because greedy is my middle name – enter – cream cheese! Mixing it with cream cheese helps the shelf life, and also retains the delicious flavours – and paired with a hint of honey spicy crushed black pepper, and crunchy almonds, this one is quite the show stopper!
Enjoy!
The Recipe
Serves
Ingredients
- 200 g cream cheese
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1 tbsp chopped fresh rosemary
- ½ tsp minced garlic (see notes)
- 8-10 finely chopped almonds
- pinch of salt
- 1 tsp freshly cracked black pepper
Instructions
- Whisk the ingredients together
- Refrigerate in an air tight container
- Serve with plain or black pepper crackers for the best pairing!
- Notes:
- Raw garlic takes time to develop flavour, so if you are serving immediately, I suggest increasing the amount to 1 tsp or so. All the flavour ingredients are based on your own tastes, so feel free to up the quantities of rosemary or honey
- If you like spicy, then go ahead and add some finely chopped green chilies or dried red chili flakes
