Fig Cream Cheese Dip
Fig cream cheese dip is a sweet appetizer or snack perfect for afternoon tea or happy hour.
I wanted a sweet and tangy dip for some cinnamon sugar pita chips, and I think I may have come up the perfect compliment. This is quick and easy and just a little too addictive. Cinnamon sugar pita chips can be found at Trader Joe’s, and Stacy’s Pita Chips makes them too. If you’d like to make this recipe dairy-free and vegan, try my homemade Vegan Cream Cheese or use a brand like Kite Hill.

It's so funny you just put that recipe up because I've been meaning to ask you for that one. Thanks La
That sounds so delicious! Try Kangaroo Brand pita chips too, they make a great Cinnamon Sugar variety. Thanks for the recipe – I always just crush the chips over vanilla ice cream, I think this sounds a bit healthier!
Oh I would love that. You are so talented.
I bought the cream cheese and the fig preserves. Also bought Mission Figlets and I plan to chop up a few to mix in. Will serve in little phyllo dough cups.
Thanx. Judy
I’m curious to know how the lemon juice adds.
