Pecan Habanero Pimento Cheese
"I’ve been a fan of classic pimento cheese ever since I was a kid. A pimento cheese sandwich instantly takes me back about 30 years. This Pecan Habanero Pimento Cheese is a bit different. While it could be spread on a sandwich, it really stands out as a dip served with your favorite crackers. This dip is truly fantastic! I’m planning on making a big batch for the holidays. It would be perfect served with a glass of wine while hanging out with friends and family. While this recipe does have a spicy kick, the ingredients are perfectly proportioned to keep you coming back for more. "Just one more bite. Ok, maybe just one more after that!""
