Even though I'm a closet Easy Cheeser, I like to make my own dips and spreads, and this is my favorite cheese spread. It's good and smoky and tastes great on saltine-type crackers, whole wheat crackers, and with crunchy sesame breadsticks. Prep time includes sitting time . Ingredients:
2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese |
1 (3 ounce) package cream cheese, softened |
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt |
1/4 teaspoon tabasco sauce |
1/3 cup beer |
3/4 teaspoon liquid smoke |
1 teaspoon chili powder |
crumbled cooked bacon, to garnish (optional) |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, mix cheeses together.
2. Beat in beer to make a creamy spreading consistency.
3. Add garlic salt, Tabasco, Liquid Smoke and chili powder.
4. Cover and chill several hours or overnight.
5. Take out of refrigerator about 1/2 hour before serving.
6. Garnish with crumbled cooked bacon if you wish.
