Ingredients

• 8 ounces cream cheese
• 3 tablespoons honey
• 1 cup walnuts
• 0.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 pinch salt

Directions

Step 1

Take the cream cheese out of the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes to soften slightly for easier mixing.

Step 2

Roughly chop the walnuts into small pieces using a knife or a food processor, ensuring they are small enough to blend evenly into the spread.

Step 3

In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, honey, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.

Step 4

Using a hand mixer or a sturdy spatula, mix until the ingredients are smooth and creamy. Make sure the honey and vanilla are fully incorporated.

Step 5

Fold in the chopped walnuts gently using a spatula, ensuring they’re evenly distributed throughout the cream cheese mixture.

Step 6

Transfer the honey walnut cream cheese spread into a serving dish or airtight container for storage.

Step 7

Serve immediately with bagels, crackers, or fresh fruit, or refrigerate for up to 1 week. Bring it to room temperature before serving for optimal spreadability.
