This has a lovely flavor and is creamy and spreadable. I have made non cook versions of pimento cheese before so decided to try your recipe for something different. I loved the spicy hint (I might up it next time) and slight sweetness. I will definitely make this again! I think it would be great for gatherings ringed with crackers and/ or celery sticks too. Thank you for sharing your recipe! Reviewed for ZWT 3.
