Ingredients

  • ¼ cup FAGE Sour Cream
  • 8 ounces cream cheese Softened (must be softened for best results)
  • 6 ounces fresh cranberries
  • 3 green onions chopped
  • 1 Jalapeno pepper seeded and chopped
  • 1 /2 cup sugar more or less to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a food processor, combine the cranberries, jalapeno, green onions sugar and salt. Pulse until very finely chopped.
  2. Place the softened cream cheese in a medium bowl. It is very important that the cream cheese is softened for the best results. Use a hand mixer to whip the cream cheese until it has a soft and smooth consistency. Add the sour cream and beat until combined.
  3. Drain excess liquid from the cranberry jalapeno mixture. Add the cranberry mixture to the cream cheese mixture, beat until combined.
  4. Serve right away with crackers and bread for dipping. This can also be made up to one day in advance and stored in an airtight container in the fridge. If some liquid separates, just stir the dip well before serving.

Notes

  • Cream cheese must be soft in order for it to mix well with the other ingredients.  Using a hand mixer also helps the ingredients emulsify.
