Spiced Cream Cheese Spread is a great flavor change from the conventional cream cheese spread.
It’s very easy to pimp up your sandwich r simply a slice of bread with this flavorful cream cheese spread.
A blanket of smooth, velvet-like cream cheese spread on a lovely slice of bread, I could live on that!
Ok, I am exaggerating but I don’t mind enjoying savory flavorful cream cheese frequently.
Today, I gave my soul to the Diavolo in exchange for a brilliant flavored spicy cream cheese recipe!
Better knock on wood at this point, I was just joking!
My path, of course, didn’t cross the devil’s but it could have because I couldn’t stop indulging in the spicy cream cheese spread on a whole wheat bread slice once again.
How did I get to to the spiced cream cheese spread recipe?
Well, you see I have been disappointed by flavored commercial cream cheese such as Philadelphia in the past.
The plainly flavored cream cheese available in the market is alright but the ones with herbs and spices or garlic are just plain boring!
So one fine day I just mixed cream cheese, some garlic and spices and voila my spicy cream cheese spread recipe was born!
I barely changed an ingredient over time and that’s because the spiced cream cheese spread is perfect as it is.
The only thing I ask you to do is to get some creamy, plain flavored, quality cream cheese or at least one that you enjoy and you are good to go.
Here I would say the garlic is dominating the field, followed by the chili and bit of turmeric.
By adding Coriander as a topping you not only improve the aesthetics of the spread but also add another flavor dimension
