Ingredients

Scale

Cheese Base

  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1 (5.3 ounce) package garlic and herb Boursin cheese

Toppings

  • 1 (9 ounce) jar fig jam
  • 10 slices cooked and crumbled bacon
  • 1 cup chopped pecans

Instructions

  1. Prepare Cheese Mixture: Place the softened cream cheese and the garlic and herb Boursin cheese into a food processor or use an electric mixer. Blend or whip until the mixture is smooth, whipped, and creamy, ensuring there are no lumps and a uniform texture is achieved.
  2. Spread Cheese Layer: Transfer the whipped cheese mixture into a serving dish or pie dish, spreading it evenly to form the base layer of the dip.
  3. Add Fig Jam: Evenly spread the jarred fig jam over the whipped cheese layer, covering it completely to add a sweet contrast to the savory cheese.
  4. Top with Bacon and Pecans: Sprinkle the crumbled cooked bacon slices and the chopped pecans evenly over the fig jam layer to add a savory crunch and texture to the dip.
  5. Serve: Your Boursin Dip is ready to serve. Pair it with crackers, sliced baguette, or vegetable sticks for dipping and enjoy immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.

Notes

  • Allow the cream cheese to soften at room temperature for easier mixing and a creamier texture.
  • This dip can be made ahead of time and refrigerated for a few hours; bring to room temperature before serving for best flavor.
  • For a vegetarian option, omit the bacon and consider adding extra nuts or herbs for added texture.
  • Pair this dip with a variety of crackers, toasted baguette slices, or fresh veggies like celery and carrots.
  • Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
