Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cups softened cream cheese
- 1/4 cup raspberry jam
- 1/2-3/4 cup fresh raspberries
- zest of one lemon
- 1-2 tbsp liquid honey
- optional: fresh mint for garnish
- serve with choice of crackers or crostini
Instructions
- Spread cream cheese on the bottom of a low medium bowl or plate.
- Next spread a layer of raspberry jam, sort of swirl it into the cream cheese. Sprinkle on the fresh raspberries and then zest of one lemon. Finally drizzle honey over the whole dip.
- Garnish with fresh mint and enjoy alongside crackers or crostini.
Notes
- I love serving this with crostini, but you can also serve it with pita chips, crusty baguette or graham crackers for a more sweet dip!
- If your cream cheese needs a little extra help to become a spreadable consitency, put the cream cheese in a large bowl and use a wooden to metal spoon to stir it somewhat vigourously until the desired texture is reached.
- Want to make crostini to go with this dip? Slice a baguette into 1-inch thick slices and preheat your oven to 400°Fahrenheit. Brush one side of each slice of baguette with olive oil and place on a baking sheet in a single layer. Toast for 10 minutes, flipping after 5 minutes.
