Directions
1. Prepare the Cheese
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sharp cheddar cheese and cream cheese. Use a hand mixer or spatula to blend them together until smooth and creamy.
2. Add Pimentos
Drain the pimentos and add them to the cheese mixture. Stir gently to incorporate them without breaking them up too much.
3. Mix in Other Ingredients
Add mayonnaise, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Mix until everything is well combined.
4. Taste and Adjust Seasoning
Taste the pimento cheese and adjust the seasoning with more salt, black pepper, or cayenne if desired.
5. Chill and Serve
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld. Serve with crackers, on sandwiches, or as a dip.
