Festive Cranberry & Cream Cheese Spread

1. Prepare the Base
   In a large mixing bowl, whip the cream cheese until soft, creamy, and lump-free.

2. Blend & Chill
   Pour in the cold heavy cream and beat until smooth. Cover and refrigerate for about 30 minutes to allow it to set slightly.

3. Whip it Up
   Take the mixture out of the fridge and beat again until stiff peaks form, giving it a fluffy texture.

4. Swirl in Flavor
   Gently fold in the cranberry sauce and orange zest. Be careful not to overmix — you want beautiful red swirls throughout.

5. Chill & Serve
   Spoon the mixture into a sealed container and refrigerate until firm. Serve chilled with bagels, toast, muffins, or even as a fruit dip.

✨ Tip: For an extra festive touch, sprinkle a little extra orange zest or a few sugared cranberries on top before serving.
