For a spicier kick, use a hot pepper jelly instead of mild.
To make it extra fancy, garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or cilantro.
If you're preparing this ahead of time, cover it loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. Let it sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes before serving.
Try different flavors of cream cheese, such as chive or garlic, for a unique twist.
Consider serving with a small cheese knife or spreader for easy serving.
