Sweet and Spicy Cranberry Dip

Tart, sweet, spicy, and creamy, this cranberry jalapeno dip has it all! Repurpose that leftover cranberry sauce into a delicious dip to snack on while watching the big game! 

Add the jalapeno, cilantro, salt, and lime juice to the bowl of the food processor and pulse until the mixture is minced and all the same size.

Add the cranberry sauce and pulse again to combine the mixture.

Add the softened cream cheese bricks to a large bowl and whip the cream cheese for 1 minute with a hand mixer.

Top the cream cheese with the cranberry mixture and place the dip in the refrigerator for at least one hour. Serve with crackers.

Allow the dip to chill in the refrigerator for at least one hour before serving to meld the flavors together.  This dip can be made up to 24 hours in advance.

The seeds and white membrane in the jalapeno is where all the heat is.  Remove those parts of the jalapeno if you don't want this dip to be too spicy.
