Attention, cheese lovers! This may be the best cheese spread you've ever had! My friend's mother gave me this recipe over 15 years ago. I always make it around the holidays, or for football and hockey game nights. Everyone begs for this recipe. Turn this into a pub spread by adding a half cup of your favorite dark ale. Use brick cream cheese for a spread, or spreadable cream cheese for a dip. Serve with crispy crackers, toast, or bagels.

Ingredients

  • 1 package cream cheese , 8 ounce
  • 1 container cold pack aged sharp Cheddar cheese , 8 ounce
  • 0.25 cups finely chopped red onion
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 dash hot sauce , or to taste

Instructions

  1. 1

    Place cream cheese and cold pack Cheddar cheese in a microwave-safe bowl; slice cheese into chunks with a knife. Microwave cheese in 30-second intervals on high just until softened, stirring between intervals.

  2. 2

    Stir red onion, Worcestershire sauce, black pepper, paprika, and hot sauce into cheese mixture with a fork until evenly combined; spoon into an airtight container and refrigerate, 8 hours to overnight.

  3. 3

    Remove cheese spread from refrigerator about 30 minutes before serving.
