This week's Coffee Break contains an easy hors d'oeurve (you probably know that's a fancy word for 'snack') you'll be proud to serve your guests... even if it's chip and dip night! I served these delights at our Christmas Open House and I can't tell you how many people raved about them.
16 oz. cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup (or to your taste) of your favorite dip spice
(I used sundried tomato and basil)
1/2 thick star cookie cutter
1/2 cup (or to your taste) of your favorite dip spice
(I used sundried tomato and basil)
1/2 thick star cookie cutter
In a mixing bowl, beat cheese and spice together until well blended. Form into a ball, cover well and chill in refrigerator for about an hour.
Remove cheese ball from refrigerator and press cheese onto cutting surface until it's about 1/2 inch thick. Working quickly, cut shapes with the cookie cutter. If the cheese becomes too soft to handle, return to refrigerator to chill. Place shapes on a plate, cover and return to refrigerator until ready to serve with your favorite crackers!
Cheers,
Jessica
