- 4 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped)
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 0.5 teaspoons Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoons Smoked paprika
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper (freshly ground)

Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and shredded sharp cheddar cheese. Mix thoroughly until well blended.
Add the minced garlic, fresh parsley, Worcestershire sauce, dried oregano, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix until all the ingredients are evenly distributed.
Gradually add the heavy cream, one tablespoon at a time, to achieve your desired consistency. The mixture should be creamy and spreadable but not overly runny.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with additional salt or pepper if needed.
Transfer the cheese spread to a serving bowl or storage container. If desired, garnish with a sprinkle of smoked paprika or chopped parsley for presentation.
Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled with your choice of crackers, toasted baguette slices, or fresh vegetables. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
