Cream Cheese and Pepper Jelly Dip Recipes

November 15, 2019

Several years ago I came across a recipe for a pepper jelly & cream cheese appetizer/dip that was a cherry pepper jelly with light Karo syrup, almond extract, and even slivered almonds. I found it during Christmas and made it for a couple of parties - including New Year's eve.

It was a huge hit! I somehow lost the recipe and have never been able to find it again since! Does anyone have this recipe?

Here is one recipe for cherry pepper jelly that you can make at home. The other for making a dip seems pretty simple. After making your homemade jelly jsut pour it over the top of your cream cheese and add the other ingredients. eliotseats.com/.../

All kinds of pepper jelly recipes can be found but most just use pepper jelly and cream cheese and rarely add any other ingredient (some use different kinds of pepper jelly).

Since you say this has Karo syrup added I have the feeling this was a recipe off a bottle of Karo syrup and may not be found in common recipe files.
If this could be the case, you may be able to write to Karo company and ask about this recipe (it is not shown in their recipes on their site).
It may help if you can remember approximately what year you first started using this recipe.

Do you make your own pepper jelly or purchase it ready made?
I was just curious as I'm experimenting with making pineapple pepper jelly and I'm hoping it is worth the extra effort over buying it in a jar.

I believe you could take your favorite pepper jelly and experiment with adding just a small amount of each of the other ingredients until you have the taste you like. If you try this, be sure to keep good records as you go so you can make the same dip in the future.

I'm using these sites to find recipes for my pineapple jelly and their recipes have good instructions.

This one uses cherry peppers instead of cherries (but you can always use dried cherries instead of fresh in most recipes).

2 C. shredded cheese (sharp cheddar or whatever)
12 strips pre cooked bacon (I buy already cooked) cut up or crumbled

Mix all together but reserve 1/2 bacon for topping. Bake at 400* for 15-20 minutes to heat and brown.

Serve with Frito Scoops or crackers. Awesome

I am looking for a recipe that used cream cheese, I believe. You pour green or red pepper jelly over it and serve it with crackers? Is that all I need to do?
