Ingredients

  • 16 ounces, weight Cream Cheese, Softened
  • 1 cup Dried Cranberries
  • 1/2 cups POM Pomegranate Juice
  • 8 ounces, weight Shredded Pineapple, Drained
  • 1/2 cups Chopped Pecans (optional)

Method

  • 1) Make sure the cream cheese is at room temperature and very soft.
  • This will help keep the lumps away.
  • Smush around until slightly smooth.
  • 2) Add cranberries; stir.
  • Slowly add in the pomegranate juice.
  • This will make the spread a little thin.
  • 3) Next add the pineapple and pecans, if desired.
  • Mix wellthe spread will be a pinkish color from the juice.
  • 4 ) Now the dip needs to chill for at least an hour.
  • I say overnight is best, so all those flavors get real chummy with one another.
  • This will also help the spread set up and become much thicker.
  • 5) Once chilled, you can shape it into a ball, roll in more pecans and serve as a dessert cheeseball, or set it out in a pretty dish.
  • This recipe makes a great bagel spread, or you can eat it with apple slices, vanilla wafers, snickerdoodles, ginger snapsmaybe even some Ritz crackers to balance some sweet and salty?
