I picked the recipe up from the Southern Food section of About.com. My family loves Port Wine Cheese, but we've only had the pre-packaged Wispride version before. I'm looking forward to trying this for the holidays.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    In a small bowl, combine wine and melted butter.
  2. 2
    In a food processor, combine Cheddar cheese, sour cream, salt, and cayenne pepper. Process until mixture is smooth.
  3. 3
    Gradually add the butter and wine mixture, processing until smooth.
  4. 4
    Store in airtight container and refrigerate for 24 hours for best flavor. Serve with assorted crackers. (Cooking time stated is meld time in refrigerator.).

My DH and I really liked the taste, but the addition of the wine and butter caused it to be thick, not solid like the port wine cheese that I enjoy. It actually is more of a dip than a spread. I'll keep trying, and if I can get it right, I'll rate this again!
