If you want to bring something to a party, but don't know what to make, try this tasty and simple pimiento cheese spread. It's always a hit. In fact, my husband has named it "the fist fight cheese spread" because it is worthy of fighting for the last bite.
What you'll need:
- Shredded extra sharp cheddar cheese, white and yellow
- Mayonnaise
- Diced pimientos
- Salt and pepper
- Cayenne powder
In a large bowl, add equal parts of shredded extra sharp white and yellow cheddar cheese. Add a small jar of drained diced pimientos. I usually use a 2 oz. jar of pimientos if I'm using two 8 oz. blocks of cheese. Sprinkle in a pinch of salt, pepper, and cayenne. Add about a cup of mayonnaise. Start with less, and as you stir it together, add more if necessary. You want the mayonnaise just to coat the cheese lightly. Transfer to a serving dish and chill it if you have time. This is great to make the day before you want to serve it.
That's it! So easy, so tasty. Spread some on a cracker, and you're good to go! Just be sure to warn everyone that fist fights may break out over this spread. You might want to make extra.
