Ingredients

1 package (5.2 ounces) Boursin Cheese, Garlic & Fine Herbs
4 ounces Cream Cheese

1/2 cup Shredded Mozzarella
2 tablespoons Hot Honey

1 teaspoon Fresh Thyme, chopped
1 teaspoon Olive Oil

1/4 teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes (optional)
Pinch of Salt
Cracked Black Pepper, to taste

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and allow it to fully heat while you prepare the dip.
Step 2: In a mixing bowl, blend together the Boursin cheese, cream cheese, shredded mozzarella, and 1 tablespoon of hot honey until smooth and well combined.
Step 3: Lightly oil a small baking dish with the olive oil, then transfer the cheese mixture into the dish, smoothing out the top evenly.

Step 4: Drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon of hot honey over the top of the cheese mixture. Sprinkle the chopped fresh thyme and, if using, the red pepper flakes evenly on top.
Step 5: Bake the dip for 15 to 18 minutes until the edges are bubbly and the top turns a golden color.
Step 6: Remove from the oven, crack fresh black pepper over the surface, and add an extra drizzle of hot honey if desired.

Step 7: Serve the dip warm with toasted bread, crackers, or sliced vegetables for dipping.

Tips & Variations

For added texture, sprinkle toasted nuts like pecans or walnuts on top before serving.
Use whole milk mozzarella for a creamier melt, or substitute with fontina cheese for a different flavor.

If you prefer less heat, reduce the amount of hot honey or omit the red pepper flakes.
Fresh thyme can be swapped for rosemary or oregano for a different herbaceous note.

Storage

Store any leftover dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes or until warmed through. Avoid microwaving to maintain texture and flavor.
