Olive Cream Cheese Spread or Dip
This super simple, 2 ingredient spread is a must try! You'll love it for easy entertaining and it just loves being spread on sourdough bread!
Equipment
- Food Processor or Thermomix optional
Ingredients
- 125 g Cream Cheese block - not spreadable
- 100 g Olives whatever flavor you like
Instructions
Using Food Processor or Thermomix
- Add the cream cheese and olives to the bowl of a food processor Thermomix. You don't need to chop the olives for this method.
- Process the cream cheese and olives until the mixture is smooth and creamy. If you like a chunkier texture, stop the mixer before it is smooth or stir through some chopped olives when placing it into a serving bowl.
Hand Mixing or Using Electric Mixer
- Dice the olives into small pieces and add them to a bowl with the cream cheese. For this method, make sure that your cream cheese has softened at room temperature.
- Use an electric mixer or fork to beat the olives into the cream cheese. Using tis method will give you a chunkier spread.
Notes
You need to use "block" cream cheese - not a tub of spreadable cream cheese. The spreadable cream cheese will be too runny when whipped. If you are mixing this recipe by hand, soften the cream cheese at room temperature first.
