Everyone always seems to go with savory snack spreads, so this sweet cream cheese dip is an easy way to stand out from the crowd. Finely chopped cranberries and pecans elevate the texture and flavor in a big way.

This dip is great for any party any time of the year. A wonderful change from the chip and dip you see at every party. Multigrain crackers added an extra crunch. I highly recommend it.

I brought this spread to work and everyone raved about. All the girls of course needed the recipe, and now everyone makes it for their holiday table!

Very easy and festive for the holidays. Serve with any type of cracker...the oj concentrate and zest really give it a great, and unexpected, flavor!
