Prep Time: 10 minutes
Chill Time: 15 minutes (optional)
Servings: 8–10

Ingredients

  • 8 ounces block feta cheese, crumbled
  • 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • ¼ cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 small garlic clove, minced
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon dried oregano
  • 3 tablespoons hot honey, plus extra for drizzling
  • Crushed red pepper flakes, for garnish
  • Fresh thyme or parsley, for garnish

For Serving

  • Toasted baguette slices
  • Pita chips
  • Assorted crackers
  • Pretzels
  • Fresh cucumber slices
  • Baby carrots
  • Bell pepper strips
  • Apple slices

Instructions

Add the feta, cream cheese, Greek yogurt, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, black pepper, and oregano to a food processor.

Blend for 2–3 minutes until the mixture is silky smooth and fluffy, scraping down the sides as needed.

Transfer the whipped feta to a shallow serving bowl and use the back of a spoon to create soft swirls on top.

Drizzle generously with hot honey and a little extra olive oil.

Sprinkle with crushed red pepper flakes and fresh thyme or parsley for a beautiful finish.

Serve immediately with your favorite crackers, toasted bread, or fresh vegetables, or chill for about 15 minutes if you prefer a firmer texture.

Texas Girl Cooks Tip

For the creamiest texture, let the feta and cream cheese sit at room temperature for about 20 minutes before blending. Finish with a generous drizzle of hot honey right before serving so it stays glossy and beautiful for guests.

Storage

Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Give it a quick stir before serving and add a fresh drizzle of hot honey to brighten the flavor.
