Cheese Mixture

Method

Preparation of Cheese Mixture

  1. 1

    Combine Cream Cheese

    In a mixing bowl, add the cream cheese. Allow it to sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes to soften for easier mixing.

  2. 2

    Add Shredded Cheddar and Parmesan

    Add the shredded cheddar cheese and grated Parmesan cheese to the softened cream cheese. Mix well with a spatula or hand mixer until fully combined.

  3. 3

    Season the Mixture

    Sprinkle in the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix again until the seasonings are evenly distributed throughout the cheese mixture.

  4. 4

    Add Fresh Parsley

    Fold in the chopped fresh parsley for an added flavor and color.

  5. 5

    Chill the Mixture

    Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
