Herbed Cheese - 16 Ounces
Cuisinart Original RecipeIngredients
8 ounces cream cheese (lowfat or regular), cut into 8 pieces
5 ounces chèvre or other goat cheese (soft type, not aged)
1 clove garlic, peeled and minced
1 tablespoon finely minced shallot or green onion
1 tablespoon finely chopped
fresh parsley
1 teaspoon herbs de Provence
1⁄2 teaspoon kosher salt
1⁄4 teaspoon white pepper
dash hot sauce, to taste
Instructions
Place all ingredients in a medium bowl. Mix on speed 3 for 1 minute, then increase speed to speed 5 to whip for an additional 2 minutes until light and fluffy. Allow to stand at least 30 minutes before serving to allow flavors to blend. Transfer to a resealable container and refrigerate. Remove from refrigerator 15 minutes before serving to soften. Serve with crackers, pita or bagel chips. This also makes a good topping for a baked potato.
