Yield 1

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 pkg (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup chicken broth
Taco seasoning or sauce

Steps:

  • In a small saucepan, combine the cream cheese and broth. Stir over low heat until the cheese is melted. Yep, that's it! Two ingredients! Now, you spice it up to match whatever flavor you're looking for. If you want an Italian flair, add 1 TBSP Italian herbs and a few dashes of grated Parmesan cheese. For the Southwest flavor, stir in 1 TBSP taco seasoning or a couple of teaspoons of taco sauce. A squeeze of lime juice can finish it off. Add lemon zest and a TBSP of lemon juice plus some herbs for sauce with a tangy twist. You can easily match Kraft's flavors with some creative combinations of your own without the extra ingredients that you don't need!

CHEF JOHN'S CLOTTED CREAM



Chef John's Clotted Cream image

While the name doesn't exactly make the mouth water, the flavor and texture of clotted cream are the stuff of legends. The long, slow cooking sort of toasts the cream, which imparts a sweet, nuttiness that I don't think I've tasted in any other preparation. This is just delicious spread on warm biscuits or scones and topped with homemade jam.
