Introduction

This Hot Honey Boursin Dip is a delightful blend of creamy cheeses and sweet, spicy honey that will quickly become a favorite at any gathering. Warm, melty, and full of flavor, it pairs perfectly with toasted bread, crackers, or fresh vegetables.

A woman's hand with light skin and white nail polish is dipping a golden-brown hexagonal cracker with small holes into a bowl of soft, white creamy cheese mixed with chopped light brown nuts and scattered red pomegranate seeds. The bowl is an oval-shaped white ceramic dish with blue patterns, sitting on a round wooden tray over a white marbled surface. Around the bowl, there are stacks of similar golden-brown crackers.

Ingredients

Boursin Cheese, Garlic & Fine Herbs, 1 package (5.2 ounces)
Cream Cheese, 4 ounces
Shredded Mozzarella, 1/2 cup
Hot Honey, 2 tablespoons
Fresh Thyme, 1 teaspoon, chopped
Olive Oil, 1 teaspoon
Red Pepper Flakes, 1/4 teaspoon (optional)
Salt, pinch
Cracked Black Pepper, to taste

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and let it 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 creamy.
Step 3: Lightly oil a small baking dish with the olive oil, then transfer the cheese mixture into the dish, smoothing the top evenly.
Step 4: Drizzle the remaining hot honey over the top, then sprinkle the chopped fresh thyme and red pepper flakes evenly across the surface.
Step 5: Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the edges are bubbly and the top has a golden color.
Step 6: Remove from the oven, crack fresh black pepper over the top, and add an extra drizzle of hot honey if desired.
Step 7: Serve warm with toasted bread, crackers, or sliced vegetables for dipping.

Tips & Variations

For a milder heat, reduce or omit the red pepper flakes and adjust the hot honey amount to taste.
Substitute fresh thyme with rosemary or oregano for a different herbal note.
Try adding a sprinkle of chopped nuts on top for extra texture just before serving.

Storage

Store any leftover dip covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place it in a 350°F (175°C) oven until warm and bubbly, or microwave in short intervals, stirring gently to restore creaminess.

How to Serve

A shallow white bowl holds three textured layers of creamy white dip swirled on top with visible small green herb pieces and a sprinkle of red seasoning, all drizzled with shiny golden oil gathered in the swirls' center; the bowl is placed on a wooden board, surrounded by pale toasted bread slices with golden edges, alongside fresh green rosemary sprigs scattered on the white marbled surface. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I make this dip ahead of time?

Yes, you can prepare the cheese mixture in advance and store it in the refrigerator. When ready, transfer it to the baking dish, add the toppings, and bake as directed.

What can I use instead of hot honey?

If hot honey is unavailable, you can mix regular honey with a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili flakes to achieve a similar sweet and spicy flavor.
