Preparation Steps

• Combine the crumbled feta cheese, softened cream cheese, olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper in the bowl of a food processor.
• Process the mixture until it becomes smooth and creamy, stopping occasionally to scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula to ensure everything is incorporated.
• If the whipped feta is too thick for your liking, add cold water (or milk) one tablespoon at a time, and process again until you achieve your desired creamy consistency.
• Taste the whipped feta and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more salt, pepper, or lemon juice to your preference.
• Transfer the whipped feta to a serving bowl. Drizzle with a little extra olive oil and a sprinkle of fresh herbs if desired, such as chopped parsley or chives. Serve immediately with pita bread, crackers, or fresh vegetables.
