Notes
- Room temperature cream cheese is a must! If you're rushed on time, you can microwave the cream cheese for 30-45 seconds.
- Any herb and garlic cream cheese combination works beautifully! Lemon zest is optional for an extra tang.
- If you're looking for inspiration, try adding basil pesto with sun dried tomatoes and scallions.
- The herb cream cheese can keep for up to 2 weeks.
