Ingredients
6oz.feta cheese
4oz.cream cheese
1-2Tablespoonsolive oil
freshly ground black pepper- to taste
2Tablespoonstoasted pine nuts
1/3cuphoney
naan bread or crackers- to serve
Instructions
In a small pan, saute the pine nuts until fragrant and slightly browned.
In a food processor, combine the feta, cream cheese, olive oil, and seasonings. Whip mixture until nice and creamy. I usually let the processor run for a minute or two.
Spoon mixture into a bowl, smoothing it out so that the dip is thick around the edges of the bowl (leaving room for the honey).
Pour the honey into the middle off the dip. Sprinkle with toasted pine nuts and some chopped cilantro.
Serve with naan bread or crackers of your choice.
Notes
To prep ahead, prepare the whipped cheeses in the serving bowl. Refrigerate. Sit the bowl out 30 minutes before party time so the cheese will soften a bit. Then pour the honey inside and add garnishes. Enjoy!
