How to Smoke Cream Cheese – This easy Traeger smoker recipe uses a bit of brown sugar and a handful of spices to make spicy, sweet, smoky, and tangy smoked cream cheese as a crowd-pleasing party dip or spread!
We love using our electric Traeger smoker for recipes other than just main dish proteins. This Smoked Cream Cheese recipe makes a fabulous and unique dip or spread for parties and snacks!
Here I coat a block of rich and tangy cream cheese with a combination of brown sugar and earthy and bold spices. The flavor is irresistibly deep and savory, with just the right hint of sweetness and a creamy texture. Prep is easy and takes only a few minutes, and the coated cheese smokes in just about an hour. This is a dip that tastes amazing and seems super impressive but is basically effortless to make.
Serve this easy appetizer warm with crunchy crackers and/or veggies, or use the smoky cream cheese dip as a spread on bread and other dishes. You won’t believe how fast it will disappear!
