Ingredients
4 oz Feta cheese
4 oz cream cheese, room temperature
1 tablespoon olive oil
½ teaspoon minced garlic
½ teaspoon dried basil
¼ cup honey
1 tablespoon chopped pistachios
1 teaspoon finely chopped chives
½ teaspoon cracked black pepper
Instructions
Whip the Feta and Cream Cheese:
In a food processor, combine the feta cheese, cream cheese, and olive oil. Process until the mixture is smooth and well combined. Add the minced garlic and dried basil, and continue to blend until everything is fully incorporated.
Prepare the Dip:
Scoop the whipped feta mixture out of the food processor and onto a small plate or into a shallow bowl. Use a large spoon to create a well in the center of the cheese mixture.
Add the Toppings:
Fill the well with honey, allowing it to pool in the center. Garnish the sides of the well with the chopped chives, chopped pistachios, and cracked black pepper.
Serve:
Serve the whipped feta dip immediately with warm pita bread, crackers, or fresh veggies for dipping.
