My sisiter-in-law Carol is the best cook I have ever met. This is one of the dips she serves at her yearly derby party. She serves it with crackers but you can also make finger sandwiches or use as a stuffing for celery.

I'm going to try making this spread with some crumbled bacon. I think it would add a nice smoky flavor.

I can't wait to try this spread with different types of cheese. I think it would be great with a sharp cheddar or a blue cheese.

This spread is a great way to use up leftover herbs. I added some fresh chives and parsley, and it really brightened up the flavor.

I wasn't sure how the Benedictine would taste in a cheese spread, but it actually works really well. It adds a subtle sweetness and complexity.

I found that the spread was a bit too thick for my taste. I added a little milk to thin it out.
