Ingredients
Scale
8 ounces soft goat cheese (chèvre), room temperature
2 tablespoons heavy cream or whole milk
1 tablespoon honey, plus more for drizzling
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves, chopped
Instructions
Place the room temperature goat cheese, heavy cream, 1 tablespoon of honey, salt, and pepper into the bowl of a food processor.
Process the mixture for 2 to 3 minutes, stopping to scrape down the sides as needed, until the cheese is completely smooth and fluffy.
Transfer the whipped goat cheese dip to a shallow serving bowl.
Drizzle the top generously with extra honey and sprinkle with fresh thyme leaves.
Serve immediately with crackers, crostini, or sliced vegetables for an easy appetizer.
Notes
If you do not have a food processor, you can use a stand mixer with the whisk attachment, but you may need to beat the mixture longer to achieve a smooth texture.
For a festive variation, substitute the thyme with finely chopped dried cranberries and toasted pecans.
This creamy goat cheese spread keeps well in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to four days. Let it soften slightly before serving.
