Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 pkg (8 oz) cream cheese or neufchatel, room temperature
3 oz (about half a jar) gr olives, drained - save juice - rough chopped
2-3 oz (2-3 tbsp) saved olive juice, more or less to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Whip the cream cheese, with electric mixer, until smooth.
  • 2. Add the olive juice a tablespoon at a time, mixing well after each addition. You want the cream cheese smooth, easy to spread, but not runny, so you may not use all of the reserved juice.
  • 3. Stir in olives. If you can, allow to stand for 15-20 minutes for flavors to blend. Serve with crackers (I like triskets)

I love this spread on bagels (especially everything bagels), but it is good as a cracker spread, too. Amount of servings is a guess.

OLIVE CHEESE BALL

If you like olives, you'll love this special cheese ball from LaVerne Vinzant of Catawba, Wisconsin. "I received the recipe from a friend many years ago and am always asked to make it," she writes. TIP: "I like to prepare this ahead of time and chill it for at least 3 hours. You can serve it with any snack cracker."
