Ranch Cream Cheese Spread is perfect as a spread for a party or for appetizers. Perfect for date night, an Anniversary, Super Bowl Party, or a party Charcuterie Board. Anytime is a perfect time to snack.  Enjoy with baby bell peppers in half and spread some cream cheese in the center or decorate with little chives or parsley on top. Additionally, you could also remove the bottoms of mushrooms and stuff them with some spread. Nevertheless, it is quick, easy, and oh so versatile.

What makes this recipe so special is the addition of a DIY Garlicky Onion Seasoning.  Unbelievably, this spreadable flavored cream cheese is a perfect topping for baked potatoes or even inside mashed potatoes. Not to mention, this recipe can be made vegan and dairy-free by using Kite Dairy-Free Cream Cheese. Not surprisingly, there is no limit to what this spread can be used for.

In fact, it is a favorite snack in my household. Looking for breakfast? Try smearing it on top of a Gluten-Free Bagels or better yet on top of hamburger buns to add zip to your burgers. Consequently, I sometimes half this recipe and use as an appetizer for my Anniversary. A small bowl of dip surrounded by veggies, crackers, chips, and cauliflower pretzel sticks. In all honesty, it is a family favorite.

To mold the spread place a piece of plastic wrap into the bowl of choice. Place the spread inside the bowl and press into it into shape. Wrap the spread in the plastic wrap. Remove the spread and the plastic wrap. Using a cake spatula place on serving platter of choice.
