Classic Pimento Cheese Spread:
3 C Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese ( room temperature) Shred by Hand on a Grater or in a Food Processor.
8 oz. Cream Cheese ( room temperature)
1/2 C Mayonnaise
1/3 C Pimento Peppers from a jar, well drained and chopped
1/2 tsp Onion Powder
1/2 tsp Salt
1/4 tsp ground Black Pepper, or more to taste
1/8 tsp ground Cayenne Pepper, or more to taste
Combine all Ingredients in a Stand Mixer with a Paddle Attachment.
Mix just until well blended.
Best if brought back to to room temperature before serving.
Makes about 3 cups.
Of course I would double or triple the recipe for a family picnic.
Option:
Transfer to an Oven Proof Casserole Dish.
Add 1- 4 oz. can of Diced Green Chiles and Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes to make a great Dip.
Serve with Tortilla Chips.
Enjoy!
Peace in the Kitchen!
