Directions

Step 1

Take the cream cheese out of the refrigerator 20 minutes prior to starting the recipe so it softens and becomes easier to mix.

Step 5

Taste the cheesespread and adjust the seasoning if needed by adding more salt or pepper.

Step 6

Transfer the cheesespread to a serving dish. If desired, garnish with finely chopped fresh chives for added flavor and presentation.
