CREAM CHEESE ONION DIP RECIPES

Steps:

• Chop cranberries in a food processor or by hand. Transfer to a bowl.
• Add sugar, green onion, cilantro, jalapeno pepper, lemon juice, cumin, and salt to cranberries; mix well. Cover and store in the refrigerator until cranberries have lost some of their bitter taste, about 4 hours.
• Place cream cheese bricks on a plate and pour cranberry mixture over top. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• To prepare the pigs, preheat oven to 425°. Lightly spray a large baking sheet with cooking spray. 
• Roll pizza dough into an 11x17-inch rectangle on a lightly floured surface. Cut the pizza dough into 42 even strips, stretching each dough strip slightly using your fingertips. Tightly wrap each cocktail frank horizontally with 1 dough strip. Place wrapped franks onto prepared baking sheet. 
• Bring 8 cups water to a boil in a large stockpot; add baking soda and honey to pan, stirring until dissolved. Add 5 to 6 wrapped franks to water; cook 20 to 30 seconds. Return franks to baking sheet using a slotted spoon. Repeat procedure until all franks have been boiled. Arrange franks 1 inch apart on baking sheet.
• Whisk together egg and half-and-half in a small bowl. Whisk together poppy seeds, sesame seeds, dried onions, dried garlic, and salt in a shallow bowl. Lightly brush the dough of each frank with egg mixture using a pastry brush; gently roll each in the poppy seed mixture, returning to baking sheet as they are coated. 
• Bake at 425° for 12 to 15 minutes or until lightly browned; cool  5 to 10 minutes on sheet. Gently transfer to a platter using a spatula. Serve with cream cheese dip. 
• To prepare the dip, place softened cream cheese in a medium bowl; beat with an electric mixer until fluffy. With the mixer at low speed, mix in the buttermilk and remaining ingredients (through pepper) until smooth.
