German Beer Cheese Spread

We love recipes inspired by our German heritage. This tangy spread is fantastic served alongside everything, including pretzels and pumpernickel or crackers and sausage. Choose your favorite beer—the flavor really comes through.

Ingreadient:

• 1 pound sharp cheddar cheese, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1-1/2 teaspoons prepared mustard
• 1 small garlic clove, minced
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/8 teaspoon pepper
• 2/3 cup German beer or nonalcoholic beer
• Assorted crackers or vegetables

Direction

1. Place cheese in a food processor; pulse until finely chopped, about 1 minute. Add Worcestershire sauce, mustard, garlic, salt and pepper. Gradually add beer while continuing to process until mixture is smooth and spreadable, about 1-1/2 minutes.
2. Transfer to a serving bowl or gift jars. Refrigerate, covered, up to 1 week. Serve with crackers or vegetables.
