Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 c old cheddar cheese, grated
8 oz cream cheese, room temperature
4 oz butter, room temperature
1/4 c beer, non-alcohol beer, white wine or buttermilk
1 pinch black pepper
1 small onion, minced finely
sprig parsley or sprinkle paprika to decorate

Steps:

  • 1. In a large bowl or in food processor, combine softened cream cheese and butter until thoroughly blended.
  • 2. Add pinch pepper and just enough liquid (beer, non-alcohol beer or white wine) to make the cream cheese mixture fluffy.
  • 3. Add grated old Cheddar cheese and combine thoroughly. You may need to add just a bit more liquid so that it retains nice texture, but not to worry if it's a bit thick and heavy. It still tastes great!
  • 4. Add onion, but combine only until blended in. If using food processor, pulse on/off a couple of times, but do not overwork or onion taste can become overwhelming.
  • 5. Spoon into a bowl and sprinkle with a parsley sprig or some paprika so that it looks pretty. Remove from fridge about 20 minutes before serving. Serve with crackers.
