Source of Recipe


Greg Atkinson



List of Ingredients



• 1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese
  
• 1 Tbsp chopped fresh garlic
  
• 1 Tbsp chopped fresh thyme leaves, stems removed
  
• ½ tsp kosher salt
  
• ½ tsp freshly ground black pepper
  
• ½ cup whipping cream
  






Instructions



1. In a food processor or a mixing bowl, mix the cream cheese with the garlic, thyme, salt and pepper until it is smooth.
   
   
2. In a clean bowl, whip the cream until stiff and fold half of the cream into the cream-cheese mixture and stir to loosen. Fold in the remaining cream and stir just until combined.
   
   
3. Transfer the cheese to a self-sealing plastic food-storage bag and cut off one corner to make an impromptu pastry bag. Squeeze the cheese onto butter pastry or toast. Keep any unused cheese spread refrigerated.
   
   Makes about 2 cups.
