List of Ingredients
Jalapeno Chili Cheese Crock
1 lb. sharp Cheddar cheese, grated (4 C.)
3 oz. cream cheese
1/2 C. butter, plus 1 to 2 T. (optional) to cover finished spread
1 T. finely chopped onion
2 to 3 T. chopped fresh jalape�o chiles, or to taste
1/2 tsp. paprika
Place Cheddar cheese in a medium microwave-safe mixing bowl. Add cream
cheese and the 1/2 cup butter. Microwave on MEDIUM-LOW (30 percent power)
until cheeses are softened but not melted (1 to 3 minutes), stirring twice. Do not
allow cheeses to melt; stirring will distribute heat and help to soften cheeses
without melting them.
Place softened cheese mixture in work bowl of food processor. Add onion,
jalape�o chile and paprika. Process cheese mixture until evenly blended.
Scoop mixture into decorative crock, cover, and store in
refrigerator.
Cheese will keep refrigerated up to 2 weeks. For longer storage (up to 2 months),
microwave the 1 to 2 tablespoons butter in a small microwave-safe measure for
30 to 60 seconds. Pour melted butter over cheese in crock, covering top of cheese
completely to seal. Cover and refrigerate.Recipe
