A fluffy whipped feta cheese dip topped with a spicy hot honey drizzle, perfect for quick snacks or entertaining. This easy recipe combines creamy, tangy, sweet, and spicy flavors in under 10 minutes.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
  • 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tablespoons plain full-fat Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 small clove garlic, minced or pressed (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Spicy Hot Honey Drizzle:
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon red chili flakes or cayenne pepper
  • A pinch of smoked paprika (optional)

Instructions

  1. Crumble the feta cheese into your food processor bowl. Add the softened cream cheese and Greek yogurt.
  2. Pulse the processor several times, then run it continuously for about 1 to 2 minutes, stopping occasionally to scrape down the sides with a spatula until smooth and fluffy.
  3. Add the minced garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, and a pinch of black pepper. Pulse again just to combine evenly.
  4. Taste and add salt sparingly. If too thick, add a tiny splash of water or more olive oil to loosen.
  5. In a small bowl, mix the honey with red chili flakes and smoked paprika (if using). Let it sit for a few minutes to infuse flavors.
  6. Transfer the whipped feta dip to a serving bowl. Drizzle the spicy hot honey generously over the top and create swirls with a spoon. Garnish with olive oil and extra chili flakes if desired.
  7. Serve immediately or chill and bring to room temperature before serving.

Notes

Use block feta cheese for creamier texture rather than pre-crumbled. Soften cream cheese fully before whipping. Pulse instead of overblending to avoid watery dip. Adjust chili flakes in honey drizzle gradually to control heat. Serve fresh for best texture or chill and bring to room temperature before serving. For vegan version, substitute feta with firm tofu and use dairy-free cream cheese and yogurt.
