Baked Goat Cheese Dip for the Table

Remember the Goat Cheese Risottothat I posted last week? When I went out on Friday night to do my grocery shopping for the weekend’s blog cooking (my Friday nights are typically pretty exhilarating like that), I saw that Costco’s goat cheese was ESPECIALLY cheap. 2 of the long logs are cheaper there than simply 1 log at any other store. I had NO idea what I’d do with that much goat cheese but it felt like I was wasting money (and goat cheese!!) by not buying it.
That’s where this dip comes in. I simply needed a way to reasonably use up all that goat cheese. Little did I know that this dip would be one of the go-to things I’d put in my mouth, ever! It’s also RELIABLE served with our crispy halloumi fries!

It’s COMPLETELY indulgent and surely something that should only be consumed on special occasions (because I imagine the calories in this are…high):D. But, it’s an indulgence that I HIGHLY recommend you partake in particularly soon!
It’s also, coincidentally, particularly unfussy to make! Combine all of your ingredients in a food processor or blender…

And blend until everything is combined and you’ve got a nice, creamy, and smooth consistency. Then simply place it in an oven safe dish and bake for about 10 minutes. You want the cheese to get nice and melty with a bit of brown beginning to form around the edges.

I topped my dip with a bit of olive oil although that’s entirely not necessary.
I discovered halfway through eating this that it’s even better, which seems impossible, if you drizzle each bite with a bit of honey. I’m not 100% sure what possessed me to try this but OMG IT’S WORTH THE POT!!

I hope you all have a quite lovely week (and I hope it has lots of goat cheese in it!).
