This tasty cheese spread recipe is quick and easy to make using just cream cheese, garlic and a few herbs. Make this economical appetizer in less than 15 minutes.
Cut the cream cheese into large chunks and put into the bowl of a small food processor.
Process the cream cheese for 30 seconds or until creamy.
If you're looking for a soft consistency, add just a little splash of milk and process to combine. You can add more milk to achieve the consistency you prefer.
Add remaining ingredients and process for 30 seconds to 1 minute until smooth and well combined.

Scoop into a serving bowl to serve immediately. Or chill for at least 20 minutes to allow the flavors to develop and the garlic and herb spread have a firmer consistency.
Serve with crusty bread and grissini breadsticks.
