What You Need

pkg. (8 oz.) PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese

1/2

cup KRAFT Sun Dried Tomato Vinaigrette Dressing

cloves garlic, sliced

small sprigs fresh rosemary, stems removed

sprigs fresh thyme, chopped

tsp. black peppercorns

Peel of 1 lemon, cut into thin strips

Make It

CUT cream cheese into 36 pieces; place in pie plate.

ADD remaining ingredients; mix lightly.

Kraft Kitchens Tips

Creative Leftovers

Let the cheese come to room temperature before serving.

Shortcut

To simplify, spread softened cream cheese onto bottom of 9-inch pie plate instead of cutting it into pieces. Chop garlic, rosemary, thyme and lemon peel. Mix with dressing and 1/4 tsp. ground black pepper; spread over cream cheese. Serve as directed.

Make Ahead

Appertizer can be stored in refrigerator up to 24 hours before serving.

This has such great flavor. I do have one recommendation however and that is to make sure the cream cheese is very cold before cutting into cubes.

Fantastic Flavours! This was popular with everyone who tried it. It was exceptionally nice with Cheese and Garlic Bread from the 'Great Harvest Bread Company'. I even took a bottle of the Vinaigrette to England with me to make some for my family!

This is so yummy! I think next time I might leave the garlic out, or use garlic powder instead, I love garlic, but this was a little much. Hmm....maybe we just gobbled up too much! I'll definitely make this again!

Made this for a Reunion- I think my husband ate most of it. MOST EXCELLENT for Italian cuisine. The pepper corns really spice it up!!- I spread the cream cheese into a 9inch pie plate and added the rest on top. VERY EASY just be sure to serve at room temp, or it's hard to dip. TIP -- I placed baby spinich leaves around the pie plate edge. looked really fancy! Barbie
