A Note from Feedfeed
Spicy whipped feta dip is my new favorite recipe for entertaining. It's the perfect balance of creamy, salty, spicy, and sweet and pairs perfectly with crackers and some fresh veggies. All you need is 5 minutes and a food processor to whip up this incredible dip. Plus, you can use this recipe as the base for a bed of roasted vegetables or add a punch of flavor to a grain bowl or simple weeknight chicken.

Method
Make the Whipped Feta
Step 1
Crumble the feta into the bowl of a food processor along with the heavy cream and garlic cloves. Process until smooth and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a serving bowl and smooth with the back of a spoon.
Step 2
Drizzle some of the hot honey over the top of the whipped feta. Arrange the chopped hot cherry peppers in a circle around the bowl, then drizzle some more honey over the peppers. Garnish with some chili oil overtop and a few pinches of Aleppo pepper or crushed red pepper flakes, if desired.
Step 3
Serve the spicy whipped feta dip with crackers, fresh cucumbers, and baby bell peppers.
