    Ingredients:

    3-4 Basil Leaves, chopped
    Contents of 1 roasted large head of Garlic
    8 ounces Cream Cheese
    1/4 cup grated Parmesan Cheese
    Good Sicilian Olive Oil


    Optional Additions:
    1/4 cup toasted Walnuts (optional) or
    1/4 cup chopped Artichoke Hearts (optional)

    Mix chopped basil leaves, the contents of the head of one roasted garlic, cream cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, toasted walnuts (optional), artichoke hearts (optional).

    Blend thoroughly. Add olive oil a few drops at a time until creamy.





    How to Roast Garlic:

    Using a knife, cut off 1/4 to a 1/2 inch of the top of cloves, exposing the individual cloves of garlic.

    Place the garlic heads in a muffin pan or garlic roaster.

    Drizzle a couple teaspoons of olive oil over each head. Sprinkle with kosher salt.

    If you aren't using a garlic roaster: cover with aluminum foil. Bake at 350 for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until the cloves feel soft when pressed.
