Don't over-mix the ingredients: Over-mixing can make the cheese spread tough and rubbery. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
Let the cheese spread chill before serving: Chilling the cheese spread will help it to firm up and make it easier to spread. Chill the cheese spread for at least 30 minutes before serving.
Garnish the cheese spread before serving: A simple garnish can make the cheese spread more visually appealing. Try garnishing the cheese spread with fresh herbs, chopped nuts, or a drizzle of olive oil.
