This popular cheesy Southern spread with pimiento, a classic pepper essential, has a few small improvements that make for subtle differences in taste and texture. First, it harnesses the flavorful liquid from a jar of chopped pimientos to perk up and loosen up the base, creating an even creamier dip. Then, adding rare jalapeños to your pimiento cheese spread recipe adds a welcome sharp freshness that isn’t spicy. This cheesy creamy dip will definitely disappear in an instant. Enjoy with buttery crackers and crunchy fresh vegetables.
To soften cream cheese faster, soak the package in warm water for about 15 minutes. Alternatively, microwave in 10 second increments until softened.
