cream cheese and green stuffed olive spread/dip

How To Make cream cheese and green stuffed olive spread/dip

• Step 1
  Let the cream cheese come to room temperature. Place in a medium sized mixing bowl and mash with a fork.
• Step 2
  Chop the olives to your liking and add them to the bowl with the cream cheese. The amount of olives is your choice. You can add some of the olive brine to the cream cheese to thin it a bit, if you like. Mix the chopped olives and brine until combined. Refrigerate until chilled.
• Step 3
  This spread/dip is delicious on warm toast, but our favorite is on Ritz crackers and my personal favorite is dipping unsalted mini pretzels in it. Tell me how you like to enjoy this spread/dip. Enjoy!
• Step 4
  Note: This comes from Maggie. She made this dip/spread in a small batch. This is what she did: 4oz softened cream cheese, whipped until smooth and creamy. Whisk in about 1/4 cup of chopped olives. If it is too salty for your taste add about 2 Tablespoons of sour cream. The sour cream will help thin out the cream cheese a bit and cut back on the saltiness from the olives.
