Course: Appetizer

Prep Time: 20 minutes minutes

Servings: 5 people

Equipment

• 1 Mixing Bowl

Ingredients:

• 1 cup Beer (lager or pale ale is best)
• 8 oz. Cream cheese, softened
• 2 cup Shredded sharp cheddar cheese
• 1 tbsp. Dijon mustard
• 1 tsp. Garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp. Smoked paprika
• 1 Salt & Pepper to taste

Instructions:

• Prepare Your Mixer. Add the softened cream cheese to a large mixing bowl. Using a hand mixer (or a stand mixer with a paddle attachment), beat the cream cheese until smooth and fluffy.
• Add the Beer. Slowly pour in the beer while continuing to mix. Start with 3/4 cup and add more if needed for your desired consistency.
• Incorporate the Cheese. Gradually add the shredded cheddar cheese, mixing until fully combined. The texture will be slightly chunky, which adds a delightful bite to the dip.
• Season to Taste. Mix in the Dijon mustard, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Taste and adjust with salt and pepper if needed.
• Chill and Serve. Transfer the beer cheese dip to a serving bowl, cover, and let it chill in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve cold or at room temperature.
