Best Roasted Garlic Cheese Spread Recipes
BLUE CHEESE AND ROASTED GARLIC DIP/SPREAD
This is the most amazing dip that is also wonderful spread on grilled steaks and burgers and also wonderful served on the side with raw veggies --- fresh garlic may be used, but be cautious only to use a small amount 1 teaspoon minced or less of fresh will do fine as it will overpower the other ingredients, I use about 1 tablespoon roasted for this, start by adding in a small amount at a time, and increase the amount of roasted garlic (fresh or roasted) as this dip gets stronger when left left to chill for the full 24 hours, so you might want to start with a small amount of garlic and add in more the following day if desired --- this is a dip I created years ago and still serve it today at get togethers it is the first to completey go so I always make a double batch --- gorgonzola cheese can be replaced with blue cheese for a milder flavor --- plan ahead this dip needs to chill 8-24 hours before using, you may adjust all ingredients to taste, if you prefer a more creamy dip increase the sour cream slightly, but start with the stated amounts, you will love this dip! :)

ROASTED ELEPHANT GARLIC CHEESE SPREAD
Elephant garlic is actually a type of onion, with mild flavors of garlic, leek, and onion. When roasted, the caramelization produces a sweet nuttiness that complements cream cheese nicely. Spread this on crackers, put it on a bagel with some smoked salmon, or use it as a dip for veggies-the possibilities are endless!

ROASTED GARLIC CRANBERRY CREAM CHEESE SPREAD
Lightly sweet and savoury with a delicate but addicting flavor. The original recipe called for currants and almonds, but since I didn't have either, I came up with this winning variation. Prep time doesn't include soaking the cranberries or refrigeration.
