Obatzda (Authentic German Beer Cheese Dip from Bavaria)

• portions: 8 servings
• temps actif: 10 minutes
• temps total: 10 minutes

Ingrédients

250 grams camembert cheese (Room temperature. Or a young brie cheese, just go for the one with the farthest out expiration date.)

120 grams cream cheese (Room temperature.)

10 grams butter (Room temperature.)

2 Tablespoons finely chopped chives (reserve a little as garnish on top)

2 Tablespoons finely chopped onion

1 teaspoon paprika powder

100 milliliters beer

Instructions

Mix

Bring all ingredients to room temperature (either by waiting or putting in them microwave for a few seconds). Using a fork, mash together the cheese, cream cheese and butter until you have a chunky paste-like consistency.

Beer

Add in the onions and chives and paprika and continue mixing until combined. Finally add in just enough beer to bring to a spreadable consistency. Add more beer if using a dip for parties etc.

Serve

Garnish with paprika powder and chopped chives. Serve with my homemade pretzels for the ultimate Bavarian experience (they can be made ahead of time minus the baking). Other traditional garnishes and dippers are radishes and sliced onions.
