Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Camembert cheese
- 100 grams Blue cheese
- 50 grams Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon Fresh chives
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Remove the Camembert and blue cheese from the refrigerator about 30 minutes before starting to let them soften at room temperature.
Cut the rind off the Camembert cheese and crumble it into small pieces. Do the same with the blue cheese.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the crumbled Camembert, blue cheese, and unsalted butter. Use a fork to mash everything together until it forms a smooth mixture.
Add the heavy cream, finely chopped chives, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.
Taste the spread and adjust the seasoning if needed, adding more salt, pepper, or lemon juice as desired.
Transfer the mixture to a serving bowl. Garnish with additional chopped chives if desired.
Serve immediately with crackers, fresh bread, or cut vegetables. Alternatively, cover tightly and refrigerate for up to 3 days. Allow the spread to come to room temperature before serving for the best texture.
