Ingredients

Scale

Base Ingredients

  • 4 ounces fresh goat cheese, softened
  • 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tablespoons honey (raw or natural)
  • 2 tablespoons heavy cream or milk (adjust for consistency)
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Soften the Cheeses: Let the goat cheese and cream cheese sit out at room temperature for about 30 minutes to soften. This ensures the dip whips smoothly without lumps.
  2. Whip the Base: Using a hand mixer or stand mixer on medium speed, whip together the softened goat cheese, cream cheese, and a splash of heavy cream or milk until the mixture is light and fluffy, incorporating air for a creamy texture.
  3. Sweeten and Brighten: Add honey, fresh lemon juice, and a pinch of salt to the whipped cheese mixture. Gently continue to whip until all ingredients are evenly combined and the dip achieves a balanced sweet and tangy flavor.
  4. Adjust Consistency: If the dip is too thick, add more cream or milk gradually, whipping briefly after each addition, until you reach your desired spreadable or airy consistency.
  5. Chill and Serve: Transfer the dip to a serving bowl, cover, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld. Stir gently before serving.

Notes

  • Allow cheeses to soften completely at room temperature before whipping to avoid lumps.
  • Use fresh or raw honey for the best aroma and flavor.
  • Start whipping at low speed, then increase for fluffiness.
  • Taste before adding all honey; you can add more but not less.
  • Serve chilled to enhance flavors and maintain texture.
