Ingredients

• 8 oz Goat cheese (soft and fresh)
• 4 oz Cream cheese (softened)
• 2 tbsp Honey
• 1 tsp Fresh thyme leaves
• 1 tsp Fresh rosemary (finely chopped)

• 0.25 tsp Cracked black pepper
• 2 tbsp Chopped walnuts (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the goat cheese and cream cheese. Use a fork or hand mixer to blend them together until smooth and creamy.

Step 2

Drizzle in the honey and mix until evenly incorporated.

Step 3

Add the fresh thyme, rosemary, minced garlic, salt, and cracked black pepper. Stir thoroughly to ensure the herbs and seasoning are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.

Step 4

Gradually add the olive oil while mixing to achieve a smooth, spreadable consistency.

Step 5

Taste the spread and adjust the seasoning if needed by adding more salt, pepper, or honey to balance the flavors.

Step 6

If desired, fold in the chopped walnuts and dried cranberries for added texture and flavor.

Step 7

Transfer the goat cheese spread to a serving dish and garnish with a drizzle of olive oil, a sprinkle of thyme leaves, or a few chopped walnuts for presentation.

Step 8

Serve immediately with crackers, crusty bread, or vegetable sticks, or cover and refrigerate until ready to serve. Let it sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes before serving to soften slightly.
