Cranberry Cream Cheese Dip

I got this from a neighbor while living in Germany and modified it a little. She was an American too. This was always a hit at every get-together we had! Fresh cranberries with jalapenos, sugar, green onions, and cilantro makes for great salsa. Add the cream cheese and you have a great dip! Serve with Ritz® crackers or Wheat Thins®.

Step: 1

Chop cranberries in a food processor or by hand. Transfer to a bowl.

Step: 2

Add sugar, green onion, cilantro, jalapeno pepper, lemon juice, cumin, and salt to cranberries; mix well. Cover and store in the refrigerator until cranberries have lost some of their bitter taste, about 4 hours.

Step: 3

Place cream cheese bricks on a plate and pour cranberry mixture over top. Serve immediately.
