Next fold in chopped walnuts [optional, but beyond delicious!] and a sprinkle of ground cinnamon.
Drizzle a tablespoon of honey into the mixture and stir. Simple and deeeeelicious.
Rather not wait for the cream cheese to soften? Break out your food processor and whip the cream cheese, cinnamon and honey to perfection before adding your sauce. Then fold in the minced walnuts Just be sure to unplug the food processor before trying to lick it clean. You're welcome.
Serve this heavenly spread at room temperature with sliced green apple, whole grain crackers, and crunchy celery sticks. Or just go crazy and spread it on everything in sight.
To make the sandwich:
Pile a fresh bakery croissant with the cinnamon walnut cranberry cream cheese spread above, then pile high with fresh sliced cucumbers, crisp lettuce, and anything else you'd like to throw into the mix! It's also phenomenal with oven-roasted sliced turkey breast. Whether you go veg or t-rex it up, this sandwich is positively amazing!
