    This Whipped Cranberry Feta Cheese Dip recipe is about to be your favorite dip, ever. The sweetness combined with the feta cheese creates an amazing flavor experience!

    Whipped Cranberry Feta Cheese Dip

    If I told you that you could make this simple dip with just five easy ingredients, you'd think I was off my rocker, right? But it's 100% true and 100% delicious. I think that this is one of those easy recipes that I tend to love more than others because it's so fast to make and really does have quite an amazing flavor.

    While I really ramp up my dip-making efforts during the holiday months, this is one dip that I do enjoy all year long. I also like to make this up during the days between Thanksgiving and Christmas because it's a super simple way to use up leftover cranberry sauce.

    This dip creates more than enough to share but guess what? You don't have to share with anyone if you don't want to. There's no shame in whipping up this cranberry feta dip recipe and having it all to yourself.

    I think the other part of this recipe that you're going to like is that it's going to be done and ready to enjoy in about 10 minutes of time. There are no long hours being spent in the kitchen, no trying to find extra room in the oven to cook or bake during the holiday season, and no last-minute dash to the store because you forget some obscure ingredient.

    This recipe is easy, delicious, and uses common ingredients that you might already have on hand.

    How would you eat these feta cheese dip?

    You can enjoy it any way that you want. You can dip crackers, chips, or just eat it with a spoon. It's your dip, do what you want with it.

    You can also use this as a sandwich spread and a topping to other food items like that. It's also really good on top of bread, a toasted bagel, or even an English muffin.

    Should this feta dip be served hot or cold?

    This feta cheese dip should be served chilled. You're going to want to keep it in the fridge until you're ready to eat it or right up to the point that you're serving it.

    How long will this cranberry feta cheese dip recipe last once made?

    If you're using fresh ingredients, you should be able to store this for up to a week or two without any issues. As long as you store it in the fridge and keep it in an airtight container.

    Can you freeze cranberry feta dip?

    I wouldn't. Since there is so much cream cheese in this recipe, you're running the risk that it's not going to freeze well. You can try, but just know that when it unthaws, it might have a different texture than you're looking for.

    What would you use to dip into this whipped cranberry feta cheese dip?

    This is why I love a good homemade dip. Because if I'm wanting crackers, I can dip crackers. If I'm craving a vegetable, I can cut up a vegetable and dip it as well. And if I'm just wanting to eat this spread out on a toasted bun or bagel, I can easily do that as well.

    Pita bread or toasted pita bread is also a great option that provides substance and flavor, too.
