Best Creamy Garlic Goat Cheese Spread Recipes

GOAT & CREAM CHEESE SPREAD

Steps:

• First cut your bread and spray lightly with garlic Pam and toast in the broiler until golden brown. In the meantime, mix the goat and the cream cheeses together, then add your spices, adding more if you want a very strong flavor. Let sit for about 10 minutes to allow flavors to blend.
• Take out your warm bread and spread with the cheese mixture, you can top with a little salsa or warmed pizza sauce. I usually make a bowl of spread, small bowls of sauce & salsa, and serving platter with the bread on it and place on the buffet and let the guests make their own. It is so easy and its also good stuffed inside celery :).

GARLIC & HERB GOAT CHEESE SPREAD

Steps:

• Spread softened goat cheese in a small serving dish with a lip to it.
• In a small bowl mix olive oil, thyme, garlic and balsamic vinegar.
• Pour olive oil mixture on top of goat cheese. Then garnish with a sprig of fresh herbs or sliced black olives. Serve with crackers or cut veggies.

GARLICKY HERBED GOAT CHEESE SPREAD

Steps:

• Combine all the ingredients in a mini food processor. Pulse until just whipped and blended (and the herbs are well-distributed in small, even pieces), scraping down the sides of the bowl once or twice if needed. Transfer the goat cheese spread to a serving bowl (I like to place it off-center, as seen in the photos above), using the back of a large spoon to create a divet and swoosh.
• Just before serving, drizzle with extra virgin olive oil and garnish with several dill fronds. This goat cheese spread is best served right away, but can be prepared in advance and stores well in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. Store in a container with a tight-fitting lid.
• If you do not have a mini food processor or don't wish to use one: before proceeding, finely chop the herbs (it is especially important for the goat cheese to be at room temperature if mixing by hand) and mix everything together with a spoon or spatula until well incorporated. *I prefer to use a mini food processor, because it is quick, fast, and incorporates a little air into the goat cheese, creating a slightly whipped, lighter texture.
