Spicy Cranberry Dip

Spicy Cranberry Dip

(3-3½ cups)

Ingredients:

1 (12 oz.) pkg. Fresh Cranberries, halved

1-2 medium Jalapeno Peppers, seeded and diced

2 tsp. Dried Cilantro

1 cup Sugar

1 tbsp. Fresh Lemon Juice

2 (8 oz.) pkg. Cream Cheese, room temperature

Crackers, Pita Chips or Fresh Cut Vegetables

Directions:

Combine all ingredients through lemon juice and refrigerate overnight.  An hour before serving, whip cranberry mixture with the softened cream cheese and put in a serving dish.  Let sit out at room temperature until serve time.

Note:               The amount of jalapeno and with or without the seeds is dependent on your desired heat level for the dish.

Note:               You could also try just spreading the cranberry mixture over the cream cheese after it’s been spread out on a platter.  You could also try it hot.  Put in a small slow cooker for a couple of hours before service.
