Ingredients You Will Need

Feta Cheese:

The entire base of this recipe.

Cream Cheese:

Add more body to the dip. Plus, tell me one thing that isn’t better with added cream cheese?? I’ll wait…

Heavy Whipping Cream:

This bind the feta and cream cheese together, and gives them that spread consistency. Plus it adds a little bit of sweetness.

Fresh Basil:

Add s the perfectly fresh herb flavor. The basil pairs so perfect with the berries and honey.

Seasonings:

I used salt? Every recipe needs a lil salt in my honest opinion…

Sugar:

Gives it just a hint more sweetness to break the bitter of the feta.

Strawberries:

I added fresh sliced strawberries on top of the feta. However, raspberries would also be so good.

Jam:

I used raspberry jam. However, I honestly think any flavor jam would work. I just plopped mine right in the center, but it would also be good swirled throughout the spread with a toothpick. You know, a little marble effect.

Honey:

Ties it all together. So, so good. Trust me. You need the honey.

Red Pepper Flakes:

Pairs perfect with the jam and honey. Plus, it gives it just a little more bite with a tiny hint of heat!

Step by Step How to Make This Basil Whipped Feta with Mixed Berries and Honey

Step 1

Add feta, cream cheese, seasonings, sugar, and fresh chopped basil to a food processor. Make sure that your cream cheese is soft. Pulse and let it all roughly come together. Turn the processor on low and slowly add your heavy whipping cream until a thick, creamy, spread consistency is reached. You may need more or less than a cup of the heavy whipping cream.

Step 2

With a spoon or spatula, scoop all of the feta onto your plating dish. Take the back of a spoon and mush the cheese into a circular shape, creating a bowl in the center. Add your jam and strawberries. Drizzle honey back and forth over the top of the spread. Then add more fresh basil and sprinkle red pepper flakes for added heat.

Step 3

Serve with toasts, crackers or fruit and enjoy!
