Galentine's Day tonight so found an awesome new app - it was so easy and super yummy!!! It would be great for Christmas too - perfect colors!!!
Serves 12
Ingredients
- 12 ounces cranberries fresh and whole
- 1 jalapeno cut in half and deseeded
- 4 green onions whites and light green parts
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 8 ounces cream cheese softened
- 2 tablespoons sour cream optional but recommended
Instructions
- In a food processor, add the cranberries, jalapeno, green onions, lemon juice, sugar, and salt. Pulse until chopped.
- Strain the cranberry mixture, reserving the juice.
- In a mixing bowl add the softened cream cheese and sour cream. Beat with a hand mixer (or stand mixer) until whipped and fluffy. About two minutes.
- Add in the reserved juice until you get your desired thickness. Start with 1 tablespoon. Stir in ⅓ to ½ of the cranberry mixture. Mix well.
- Spoon into your serving dish. Top with the remaining cranberry jalapeno mix. Garnish with extra green onion, jalapeno, or parsley. Serve with crackers, pretzels, or fresh vegetables.
Notes
- Sour cream will thin out the dip slightly but it adds less acidic tang than lemon juice.
- For a sweeter dip add all the reserved liquid, much of the sugar is filtered out
