Pulse the mixture until the cranberries are finely chopped and all ingredients are well combined. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
3. Chill the Salsa:
Transfer the cranberry salsa to a bowl, cover, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to let the flavors meld together. It can be made up to a day in advance.
4. Prepare for Serving:
Spread the cream cheese in an even layer on a serving platter or dish.
Spoon the chilled cranberry salsa over the cream cheese.
5. Serve:
Arrange tortilla chips, crackers, or slices of baguette around the cream cheese and cranberry salsa.
Tips:
Adjusting Heat: If you prefer less heat, remove the seeds from the jalapeño or use only half of one.
Sweetness: Taste the salsa before serving. If you prefer a sweeter salsa, you can add a bit more sugar.
Texture: If you prefer a chunkier salsa, pulse the ingredients just a few times rather than finely chopping them.
This Cranberry Salsa is a colorful and flavorful addition to your holiday spread. The combination of creamy, tangy, and spicy flavors makes it a standout appetizer that’s sure to be a hit at any gathering!
