Honey Nut Spread Recipe
- 1 (8 ounce) package Neufchatel cheese, softened
- 3 tablespoons honey, divided
- 1/4 cup dry-roasted, salted peanuts
- 1/2 cup Gluten-Free Honey Nut Cheerios™
- Combine Neufchatel cheese and 1 tablespoon honey in a mixing bowl. Mix thoroughly with an electric mixer on low speed. Add remaining honey, 1 tablespoon at a time, until combined.
- Pulse peanuts in food processor until coarsely chopped. Stir into cheese mixture.
- Transfer dip to a glass food storage container; refrigerate overnight for best flavor.
- Place Cheerios in small dry saucepan and cook over medium high heat, stirring constantly, until just starting to brown, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat immediately and cool, stirring occasionally, before pulsing in food processor until roughly chopped.
- Just before serving, top dip with crushed Cheerios.
