Smoky Cream Cheese As A Dip Or For Many

Features:
  • Gluten Free
Cuisine:

I scaled this recipe way back, so that I had just enough to accompany some chips as a late afternoon snack. It's a good thing I did, because it is tasty enough to just eat with a spoon. Thought there was still a brick of cream cheese in the fridge but I was mistaken, so used some whipped cream cheese in place of the softened cream cheese...didn't alter the flavor, and was so much easier to blend. I omitted the milk, as I liked the consistency the way it was. I will be making the dip again as I think it would be wonderful on a toasted bagel topped with some ham. Thanks for sharing your recipe LP. Made and reviewed for AUS/NZ Swap #66.

Smoky Cream Cheese (As a Dip or for Many Other Uses), This is such a versatile recipe I created it as a dip to go with raw vegetables (such as celery and carrot sticks), but found that it worked very well as a substitute for sour cream on mashed potatoes A friend who tried it said it would also be good as a dipper for some seafood items — just add some sweet chili sauce Hope you try it and let me know how you used it UPDATE: Thanks everyone for trying this for the Ready, Set, Cook contest Based on comments, I have adjusted the amount of lemon called for in the ingredients We love lemon and the original recipe called for 1 lemon, zest and juice Decide for yourself, based on your taste preferences , I scaled this recipe way back, so that I had just enough to accompany some chips as a late afternoon snack It’s a good thing I did, because it is tasty enough to just eat with a spoon Thought there was still a brick of cream cheese in the fridge but I was mistaken, so used some whipped cream cheese in place of the softened cream cheese didn’t alter the flavor, and was so much easier to blend I omitted the milk, as I liked the consistency the way it was I will be making the dip again as I think it would be wonderful on a toasted bagel topped with some ham Thanks for sharing your recipe LP Made and reviewed for AUS/NZ Swap #66 , I scaled this recipe way back, so that I had just enough to accompany some chips as a late afternoon snack It’s a good thing I did, because it is tasty enough to just eat with a spoon Thought there was still a brick of cream cheese in the fridge but I was mistaken, so used some whipped cream cheese in place of the softened cream cheese didn’t alter the flavor, and was so much easier to blend I omitted the milk, as I liked the consistency the way it was I will be making the dip again as I think it would be wonderful on a toasted bagel topped with some ham Thanks for sharing your recipe LP Made and reviewed for AUS/NZ Swap #66
