ingredients

8 ounces mild cheddar cheese, shredded
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 green onion, finely minced
1/4 cup beer, at room temperature
1 dash cayenne pepper

directions

Combine the cheddar cheese, cream cheese, Worcestershire sauce, green onion, beer, and cayenne pepper in a mixing bowl. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until the cheese mixture is light and fluffy.

Transfer the beer cheese spread to a ramekin or bowl. Serve immediately or if serving later, store in the refrigerator, covered. Let the cheese spread come to room temperature before serving.

recipe tips

Use freshly grated Cheddar cheese

Pre-shredded cheese often contains anti-caking agents like potato starch or cellulose, which can create a gritty or lumpy texture. Freshly grated cheese has a higher moisture content, making it ideal for recipes that require a creamy, rich texture.
