6 servings
- 8 oz fresh goat cheese (chèvre), at room temperature
- 3 oz fresh ricotta cheese
- 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
- 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
- ¼ tsp fine sea salt, plus more to taste
- 2 tbsp fresh chives, finely chopped
- 1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped (optional)
For serving
- 1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling (optional)
- fresh vegetable crudités or gluten free crackers, for serving (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Remove the goat cheese from the refrigerator at least 15 minutes before starting so it softens enough to whip smoothly.
- 2
Add the goat cheese, ricotta, 2 tbsp olive oil, apple cider vinegar, and salt to a food processor. Process on high for 1–2 minutes, scraping down the sides once halfway through, until the mixture is very smooth and noticeably lighter in texture.
