Ingredients
Instructions
Combine the Ingredients
In a medium bowl, combine the softened butter, processed cheese, grated hard cheese, sour cream, and the star of the show, the pressed garlic.
Mix to Perfection
Using a fork or a hand mixer, blend all the ingredients until you have a smooth, cohesive spread. Don't be afraid to give it a good whip to make it creamier.
Season and Rest
Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to your liking and stir again. For the best flavor, cover the bowl and let the spread rest in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. This allows the sharp garlic flavor to meld beautifully with the creamy cheese.
Serve
The spread is traditionally served on small open-faced sandwiches (jednohubky) or slathered on slices of fresh bread or toast. It's an ideal snack for gatherings, best enjoyed with a cold beer or a glass of wine.
