Put the cheddar and cream cheese in a 2 quart glass microwave dish, and zap at 50% for 3 - 5 minutes, stirring every minute till softened. Stir in the rest of the ingredients and beat with an electric mixer until soft and creamy. Pack in a crock or bowl with tight fitting lid. Refrigerate for at least a week. Serve at room temperature as a spread or dip.
This stuff has a wonderful flavor, stays nice and creamy and keeps well. It's one of those things your friends say, "Wow, what's in this?" Super recipe! Comments: This is a favorite of ours that MUST be made ahead, great for parties or just to have in your refrigerator for a fund taste treat on crackers, fresh veggies or on breadsticks!
