Peach Cream Cheese Spread – Ingredients
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
- 1 cup fresh peaches, peeled and finely diced
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Directions
Step 1: Cream the Base
Place the softened cream cheese and butter in a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer. Beat on medium-high speed for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the mixture is smooth, light, and fluffy.
Step 2: Add the Remaining Ingredients
Add the diced peaches, powdered sugar, and salt to the bowl. Mix on low speed, or fold gently with a spatula, until the peaches are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Step 3: Chill
Transfer the spread to an airtight container or jar. Refrigerate for at least 1 to 2 hours before serving, or overnight for the best flavor and texture.
Helpful Tip: Chilling allows the flavors to blend together while giving the spread a firmer, more easily spreadable consistency.
Step 4: Serve
Once chilled, spread generously over warm toast, English muffins, bagels, pancakes, waffles, biscuits, or your favorite breakfast breads.
Enjoy immediately.
Serving Suggestions
