Habanero PepperLove the distinctive, fruity flavor of habanero chiles but can’t always take the scorch in your mouth? Try some of this delicious Habanero Cream Cheese Dip/Spread. The cool dairy-derived sweetness of the cream cheese is the perfect offset to the intense fire of the habanero pepper; you get the hot taste yet have it somewhat subdued.

To create this awesome snack spread, you’ll need:

* 1 8 Oz. Package of Cream Cheese
* 2 Large Habaneros
* 1/8 Cup of Shredded Cheddar Cheese
* 2 Tablespoons of Milk
* Heavy-Duty Snack Crackers (Ritz will do fine)

First, soften the cream cheese in a mixing bowl with a spoon. Then, wearing gloves, dice two washed habanero peppers and blend into cream cheese. Add cheddar cheese and milk (the later of which is used as a thinning agent; add or subtract one tablespoon based on desired consistency). After well mixed, spread on shack crackers and serve.

Note: use caution when handling habaneros. Do not touch face or eyes after handling, and wash hands thoroughly after use.

    Okay, what if we want it extremely spicy? Also, what if all you have is habanero sauce?
