I decided that with over 900 pins, I ought to be getting more accomplished from the ideas on my pinterest boards than I have so far. So last week, when it was rainy and cold for the better part of the time, I modified something I had seen among my oh so fun pin-ups. When I first saw this idea, I immediately imagined it tickling my taste buds with a cream cheese base instead of butter, so that is what I used.
Here is the recipe to what our family is now calling:
Cinnamon Cream Cheese Spread
1 cube 8oz. cream cheese
2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1 tsp. vanilla
1 cup honey
1 cup powdered sugar
DIRECTIONS:
Mix all ingredients together in mixer until well blended. Refrigerate un-used portion in jars or air tight container. Makes 2 pints.
I served this with soup and banana bread one night for dinner and our family thought they were in heaven! When the bread ran out, we started spreading this goodness on bagels. I found them that much more delicious topped with pecans.
Definately a comfort-food-keeper in our recipe book!
Mmmmmm…
YUM. I like the idea of cream cheese, too. My peeps would definitely eat this one up!
