Cranberry Cream Cheese Dip

Tis the season for cranberries.  This is a dip that I made for the holidays that has a little something sweet and a little something spicy.  You could add more or less jalapeño depending on your preferences.  This would be a great addition to your New Year’s Eve get together.

1- 12oz package fresh cranberries

1/4 cup green onion, chopped

1/4 cup cilantro, chopped

1 small jalapeno pepper, chopped

1 1/4 cup sugar

1/4 teaspoon cumin

2 Tablespoons lemon juice

dash salt

2- 8oz packages cream cheese

Chop cranberries. (I used my food processor)

Add all ingredients except cream cheese. Mix them together and refrigerate for 4 hours.

When ready to serve, spread cream cheese on large plate or platter. 

Pour cranberry mixture on top of cream cheese.  Spread evenly.

Serve with wheat thins.

Enjoy!
