I love dip, it’s no secret in my house. How about you?
Well, when I make a new one I’m never sure if it’ll be a big hit with everyone else or just me.
This recipe was a winner with everyone!
They all loved it. I couldn’t be happier.
I didn’t even tell them what it was, they just started slathering it on crackers and devouring it.
The flavor combo is delicious.
You can use cream cheese or goat cheese.
You can use regular fig jam or for an added kick try fig jam with chilis.
Serve with crackers
or serve with toasted baguette slices or sliced apples.
Buy or make the topping:
I had this cranberry pecan topping on hand, the pecans are sweet honey pecans but another simple option is to use chopped dried cranberries and chopped pecans.
Cheese and jam is a combination of balanced flavors, for a tangier option use goat cheese.
Other great options:
You can use Jalapeno Pepper Jelly
Top with sliced apricots, almonds, or pumpkin seeds.
