Time 2h20m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 (6 ounce) package dried cranberries
1 cup chopped pistachio nuts
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
½ cup butter, softened
2 ounces crumbled blue cheese
4 ounces Brie cheese, rind removed

Steps:

  • Reserve 1 tablespoon of dried cranberries and pistachios for garnish. Combine remaining dried cranberries and pistachio nuts in a small bowl. Line a small round mixing bowl with plastic wrap.
  • Beat together cream cheese, butter, blue cheese, and Brie in a bowl until smooth. Spread 1/3 of cheese mixture evenly in the bottom of the plastic wrap-lined bowl. Layer 1/3 of the cranberry-nut mixture over the cheese. Layer cheese mixture with berry-nut mixture twice more, ending with a layer of cranberry-pistachio mixture.
  • Cover the bowl with more wrap, pressing the wrap down onto the spread to compress it. Refrigerate several hours or overnight. To serve, take plastic wrap off the top of the bowl and turn the layered dip out onto a serving dish. Remove remaining plastic wrap, and sprinkle reserved cranberries and pistachios around the spread to garnish.

This dip was a disappointment. It was very watery and lacked flavor.

I found this dip to be a bit bland. I added some extra salt and pepper to taste and it was much better.

I am not a big fan of cranberries, but I really enjoyed this dip. The sweetness of the cranberries was perfectly balanced by the other ingredients.

I was short on time, so I used store-bought cranberry sauce instead of making my own. It was still very good.

I am allergic to nuts, so I substituted the almonds with chopped walnuts. It turned out great!
