Cranberry Jalapeno Cream Cheese Dip

Nothing says more about the holidays than an appetizer table peppered with seasonal dips and various types of cheese. We will never refuse a hearty spinach dip or a bowl of homemade pimiento cheese, but it is always a pleasure when a seasonal taste makes the spread.

Enter our cranberry jalapeño cream cheese dip. This spread is a welcome change from the classics we are used to from holiday party to holiday party after a holiday party. It melts hot, tart, sweet, and creamy in one bite.

The salsa, which has two types of cranberries, thawed and dried, a splash of orange juice and a hint of jalapeño wrap in the taste, and works well against a layer of whipped cheese. If you are a lover of heat, you can pack a little more punch by also putting jalapeños on top of the dish.

Once they are mixed and layered in a large bowl, simply cover them for a few hours before your guests arrive.

Serve it with Carr’s Table Water Crackers or Tortilla Chips, but make sure there are no leftovers. It’s the perfect topping for toast in the morning and even makes a great seasoning for turkey sandwiches the next day.
