Instructions

  1. Place all ingredients (EXCEPT for chopped chives) into a food processor. Process until mixture becomes fairly smooth.

  2. Add chives. Pulse only until chives are incorporated. Remove cheese spread from processor. Spoon it into ramekin, gift container or crock.

  3. Cover and refrigerate for an hour. This gives flavors a chance to "mingle", which helps cheese spread taste even better.

  4. Let cheese spread come to room temperature (approx. 15 minutes) before serving with favorite crackers. Store leftovers (covered) in refrigerator up to 4-5 days.
