CRANBERRY-JALAPEÑO CREAM CHEESE DIP RECIPE | MYRECIPES



Cranberry-Jalapeño Cream Cheese Dip Recipe | MyRecipes image

We’ve taken the classic cream cheese and pepper jelly combo that we all know and love, and added even more flavor. Our Cranberry-Jalapeño Cream Cheese Dip adds some tartness, sugar, and muted spiciness to the classic holiday appetizer. It’s visually striking, with bright crimson and ruby tones, making it perfect for fall parties, and the balance of the cranberries, sugar, jalapeños, lime, and cilantro will make this the appetizer all your friends will ask for. Using a fine dish sieve to drain the salsa is a great way to remove a lot of the liquid syrup, and will make your dip look so much prettier. Plus, you can repurpose all that syrup into some delicious cocktails. If you’d rather use reduced fat cream cheese, that’s totally fine—it’ll make no changes to the taste. You can always scoop up leftover dip with extra crackers, but we also recommend using it in a turkey sandwich.

Total Time 4 hours 20 minutes

Yield Serves 16 (serving size: 1/4 cup)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (1-lb.) pkg. fresh or frozen cranberries (about 4 cups)
1 cup granulated sugar
½ cup chopped scallions (about 4 medium)
¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 medium jalapeño chile, seeded and coarsely chopped
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice (from 1 lime)
½ teaspoon kosher salt
4 (8-oz.) pkg. cream cheese, softened
Crackers, for serving

Steps:

  • Pulse cranberries in a food processor until coarsely chopped, about 10 pulses. Add sugar, scallions, cilantro, jalapeño, lime juice, and salt; pulse until finely chopped, about 5 more pulses. Transfer mixture to a bowl; cover and chill until flavors meld, at least 4 hours or up to 24 hours, stirring once or twice. 
  • Remove mixture from refrigerator; uncover and stir. Spoon into a fine mesh strainer over a bowl, and press lightly to remove excess liquid. Discard liquid, or reserve for another use. Spread cream cheese in an even layer in a serving dish. Spoon cranberry mixture over top, and serve with crackers.

Cranberry Jalapeno Cream Cheese Dip Recipe | Allrecipes image

This is a fun dip that is both sweet and spicy. I got the recipe by varying other cranberry salsa and dip recipes I have found. I got the idea of the fusion of oil from a friend. There are many ideas for use and a great item to take along when you want to surprise your friends with something they probably have not tried. Serve with Triscuits®, pita chips, or crackers.
