This is an idea I got from a friend of mine, Jen. At first I thought, I don't know about this...soy sauce, cream cheese, I don't know but I'll try it. It was delicous, perfect for a party! She picked up this idea from another friend, whom I'm sure got it from another friend and so on and so on. I googled this of course and there are "official" recipes for this, but because in the beginning I did not know of them, I am not going to reference them here, just my good friend Jen and her delicous dip!
Toasted Sesame Dip
1 brick low-fat cream cheese (neufchatel)
1/4 cup soy sauce
2-3 Tbsp toasted sesame seeds
Crackers for dipping, such as Ritz or Triscuits
Directions
Unwrap the cream cheese and using a toothpick or fork, prick holes into the cream cheese all over, you really want to let the soysauce soak up into the cheese. In a container or a Ziplock bag (I opted to use the bag,) place the cheese and soy sauce and let 'marinate' for several hours in the refridgerator. Once complete, remove from 'marinade.' *Tip, if you opt to use the Ziplock method, move to the kitchen sink and using scissors, snip a little corner off , and the soy sauce will drain out easily, making an easy transfer to a serving plate. Crust the brick with the toasted sesame seeds and serve.
