Hot Pepper Cheese Dip

Appetizers

Old English cheese comes in a jar and is in the refrigerator section alongside all of the other cheese. It’s fake cheese, but it works great in this application. This is a great application for leftover pimento cheese.

Ingredients

1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, finely shredded

1 jar Old English Cheese

1 /2 cup homemade pimento cheese

8 ounces cream cheese, softened

2 Tbsp canned jalapeños, minced fine

1 tsp garlic, minced

1 /2 tsp ground black pepper

1 /2 tsp Creole seasoning

1 /2 cup toasted pecans, chopped fine

1 Tbsp fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

Place the four cheeses into a food processor and blend until smooth. Add remaining ingredients and blend until well incorporated.

Wrap tightly in plastic and refrigerate overnight.
