Whipped Cream Cheese Dip with Cranberries

 

To finish: 

1. In a small saucepan, combine orange juice, orange zest, lemon juice, sugar, and thyme. Add cranberries, salt, and chilli flakes. Let the mixture sit for 1 hour, then bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until the cranberries are plump and the syrup has thickened. Cool and remove the thyme sprigs

2. In a blender, combine LANCEWOOD® Plain Medium Fat Cream Cheese with grated feta. Slowly stream in the olive oil while blending until smooth. Gradually add milk to achieve a light, whipped texture.

3. In a separate bowl, mix honey, lemon juice, garlic, and chilli flakes. Allow the flavours to infuse.

4. Spoon the whipped cream cheese into a serving bowl, swirling to create soft valleys. Top generously with the cranberry mixture, then drizzle with the infused honey.

5. Sprinkle with toasted pistachios, drizzle with extra virgin olive oil, and garnish with fresh thyme. Serve your festive cream cheese dip with crostini or biscuits of your choice.
