Instructions
Add goat cheese, cream cheese, honey and sea salt to a food processor and run while slowly pouring in olive oil.
Stop and scrape down the sides as needed until very smooth (note: if your cheeses are room temperature this should only take about 2-3 minutes).
Pour into a serving bowl and serve with any desired toppings (I like to do cranberry sauce, pistachios and an extra drizzle of honey).
Notes
Let Cheeses Soften: Room-temperature goat cheese and cream cheese whip much faster and smoother.
Blend Slowly: If serving right away it is very warm and silky, if you have chilled it, it stiffens up slightly so allow it to sit out for a bit or pop in the microwave for 5-10 seconds.
Adjust Sweetness: Add more honey or even hot honey depending on whether you want sweet or savory.
Serve Warm or Chilled: A quick 5-10 seconds in the microwave softens it for an ultra-silky dip.
Upgrade the Platter: Pair with crusty bread, pita chips, crackers, or fresh veggies.
