Cranberry Jalapeno Dip is a delicious holiday cream cheese appetizer perfect for serving at your Christmas party. The sweet and spicy flavors pair perfectly in this festive recipe.
Add the cranberries to a food processor. Lightly pulse the cranberries until they look roughly chopped. You do not want them to be too smooth or blended.
Finely chop the green onions, jalapenos, and cilantro.
In a large bowl, combine the cranberries, green onions, cilantro, sugar, lime juice, cumin, and salt. Gently stir.
Spread the softened cream cheese onto a large plate in a ½-1 inch thick layer. You can also divide between 2 salad plates.
Spread the cranberry jalapeno mixture on top of the cream cheese.
Serve chilled with your choice of crackers.
Notes
The juices from the cranberry will start to run as time passes. Make sure you use a plate with a lip, or create a well in the cream cheese to contain the juices.
