BEER CHEESE DIP/SPREAD



Beer Cheese Dip/Spread image

Great party dip for pretzels, veggies and chips. Also a good spread for crackers, burgers and sandwiches.

Provided by littleturtle

Categories     Spreads

Time 15m

Yield 1/2 cup, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, room temperature & finely shredded
1 tablespoon butter or 1 tablespoon margarine, softened
1 teaspoon prepared mustard
1/4 teaspoon prepared horseradish
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
3 tablespoons beer (1/4 cup if dip will be chilled)
chives, to garnish
assorted crackers or vegetables

Steps:

  • In a small bowl combine cheese, butter, mustard, horseradish and pepper.
  • Heat beer just to boiling and immediately pour over cheese mixture.
  • Beat with electric mixer about 3 minutes or until smooth.
  • Let stand at room temperature for about an hour before serving, whether serving warm or chilled.
  • Garnish if desired.
  • Serve as dip or spread.

Tips:

  • Choose the right beer: For a classic beer cheese dip, use a light or amber beer. For a more flavorful dip, use a dark beer or stout. Avoid using beers with a strong hop flavor, as this can overpower the other ingredients.
  • Use freshly grated cheese: Pre-shredded cheese contains anti-caking agents that can prevent the cheese from melting smoothly. Freshly grated cheese will give you a smoother, more flavorful dip.
  • Don't overcook the cheese: The cheese should be melted until it is smooth and creamy, but not overcooked. Overcooked cheese will become tough and rubbery.
  • Serve the dip immediately: Beer cheese dip is best served immediately, while it is still warm and gooey. If you need to store the dip, let it cool completely and then refrigerate it for up to 3 days. Reheat the dip over low heat, stirring constantly, until it is warmed through.

Conclusion:

Beer cheese dip is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for parties and gatherings. With its rich, cheesy flavor and a hint of beer, this dip is sure to be a hit with everyone. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy snack, give beer cheese dip a try. You won't be disappointed!
