Attention, cheese lovers! This may be the best cheese spread you've ever had! My friend's mother gave me this recipe over 15 years ago. I always make it around the holidays, or for football and hockey game nights. Everyone begs for this recipe. Turn this into a pub spread by adding a half cup of your favorite dark ale. Use brick cream cheese for a spread, or spreadable cream cheese for a dip. Serve with crispy crackers, toast, or bagels.

Ingredients

  • cream cheese: 1 pack (8 ounce pack)
  • pack aged sharp Cheddar cheese (such as MacLaren's Imperial Sharp Cold Pack Cheddar Cheese product): 1 pack (8 ounce pack, cold)
  • red onion: 0.25 cup (finely chopped)
  • Worcestershire sauce: 1 Tbsp
  • black pepper: 2 tsp (freshly ground)
  • paprika: 1 tsp
  • dash hot sauce: 1 piece (to taste)
