Ingredients
8 oz cream cheese
1 cup fresh cranberries
1/2 cup sugar
1 tbsp lemon juice
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp salt
Directions
In a saucepan, combine fresh cranberries, sugar, and a splash of water. Cook over medium heat until the cranberries burst and the mixture thickens.
Remove the cranberry compote from heat and let it cool completely.
In a mixing bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Add vanilla extract, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt, mixing well.
Gently fold the cooled cranberry compote into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated.
Transfer the cranberry cream spread to a serving dish and refrigerate for at least an hour to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve the cranberry cream spread with your favorite bread, crackers, or fruit slices for a festive and flavorful treat.
