How To Make green olive and cream cheese spread

Step 1

Whip the cream cheese, with electric mixer, until smooth.

Step 2

Add the olive juice a tablespoon at a time, mixing well after each addition. You want the cream cheese smooth, easy to spread, but not runny, so you may not use all of the reserved juice.
Step 3

Stir in olives. If you can, allow to stand for 15-20 minutes for flavors to blend. Serve with crackers (I like triskets)
