I LOVE OLIVES AND CREAM CHEESE SPREAD



I Love Olives and Cream Cheese Spread image

What's not to love? This is an easy make-ahead appetizer that takes 15 minutes to prepare and is so yummy it will be gone 15 minutes after you set it on the table. Pitted black olives and pimiento-stuffed Spanish/Manzanilla olives make it look as colorful as it is delicious. Serve it with crackers or crispinis. I also use it as a sandwich spread...it really spruces up a plain old cold-cut or deli sandwich.

CREAM CHEESE, OLIVE, AND NUTS SPREAD



Cream Cheese, Olive, and Nuts Spread image

This spread has always been a favorite of mine, but it must have nuts for texture. For a party, It's delicious and elegant on nut bread. Always a hit, with everyone wondering what's in it. People find it very interesting and different from most dips and spreads.

This is quick and easy to make and oh, so delicious! Be prepared, it disappears quickly. I had to make a second batch just to get pictures!

Provided by Kathy W

Categories     Spreads

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 pkg (8 oz) cream cheese or neufchatel, room temperature
3 oz (about half a jar) gr olives, drained - save juice - rough chopped
2-3 oz (2-3 tbsp) saved olive juice, more or less to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Whip the cream cheese, with electric mixer, until smooth.
  • 2. Add the olive juice a tablespoon at a time, mixing well after each addition. You want the cream cheese smooth, easy to spread, but not runny, so you may not use all of the reserved juice.
  • 3. Stir in olives. If you can, allow to stand for 15-20 minutes for flavors to blend. Serve with crackers (I like triskets)
