EASY CREAM CHEESE APPETIZERS
Put out 3 oz. blocks of cream cheese on a platter - as many as you like.
Then top each block of cream cheese with one of the following:
chopped chives
chopped pimento stuffed green olives
chopped ripe olives
red or green pepper jelly
grape jelly
apple pie jelly
mint jelly
apricot preserves
Bon Maman tiny blueberry preserves
raspberry preserves
toasted sesame seeds
chutney sauce (cut up larger pieces of fruit first)
chili sauce alone
chili sauce with tiny shrimp
chili sauce with crabmeat
You can go on and on.
Another suggestion is to mix:
1 tsp. sesame oil
1 to 2 tsp. Canola oil
Drizzle over a large (8 oz.) block of cream cheese, and top with:
smoked oysters or sesame seeds
I like to do red and green toppings for a Christmas table.
Serve with assorted crackers and party rye or pumpernickel, depending on what you choose.
