Make this creamy, tangy whipped goat cheese dip in minutes. It is an easy appetizer perfect for parties, topped with sweet honey and fresh thyme.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 ounces soft goat cheese (chèvre), room temperature
  • 2 tablespoons heavy cream or milk
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon honey, plus extra for drizzling
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves, chopped

Instructions

  1. Place the room temperature goat cheese, heavy cream, olive oil, salt, and pepper into the bowl of a food processor.
  2. Process the mixture for 2 to 3 minutes, stopping to scrape down the sides as needed, until the cheese is completely smooth and airy.
  3. Transfer the whipped goat cheese to a small serving bowl.
  4. Drizzle the top evenly with 1 tablespoon of honey and sprinkle with the chopped fresh thyme leaves.
  5. Serve immediately with crackers, crostini, or fresh vegetables for an easy appetizer.

Notes

  • For a festive holiday appetizer, substitute the thyme with finely chopped rosemary or top with dried cranberries and toasted walnuts.
  • If you do not have a food processor, you can use a stand mixer with the whisk attachment, but you may need to beat the mixture longer to achieve maximum creaminess.
  • This creamy goat cheese dip keeps well in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Let it sit at room temperature for 15 minutes before serving for the best texture.
