I really think y'all are going to love this next recipe.
If you are a fan of bagels and cream cheese or if you like to snack on crackers with some
creamy goodness smeared on top then you will really enjoy this spread.

I make this quite often for myself and my girlfriends.
It is great to snack on or you can make a meal with it by spreading it on a lightly toasted bagel and having it for lunch.

Do not skip this step and try to eat it right away - trust me, it makes a big difference in flavor when you let it hang out overnight.
