Instructions
Bring the cream cheese and unsalted butter to room temperature to soften, about 20 minutes before starting the recipe.
Grate the sharp cheddar cheese finely and set it aside.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and butter. Beat them together using a hand mixer or a spatula until smooth and creamy.
Add the grated cheddar cheese, sour cream, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Mix thoroughly until all the ingredients are fully incorporated and you achieve a smooth, spreadable consistency.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. You can add a little extra salt or pepper to suit your preference.
Transfer the Meng Cheese Spread to a serving dish. Optional: Garnish with fresh chives for a pop of color and added flavor.
