Start by dicing the jalapeno and pineapple into small pieces. Make sure to remove the seeds from the jalapeno to control the heat level.
If your cream cheese is not already softened, you can place it in a microwave-safe bowl and heat it for about 10-15 seconds. This will make it easier to blend.
In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, diced jalapeno, diced pineapple, and kosher salt. Using a hand mixer or a fork, blend the ingredients together until you achieve a smooth and creamy texture.
Give your spread a taste! If you’d like it spicier, feel free to add more jalapeno. If you prefer it sweeter, consider adding a touch more pineapple.
Transfer the spread to a serving bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together beautifully. Serve with your favorite crackers, fresh veggies, or spread it on a bagel for a delightful breakfast!
