ingredients
- 1 (4 ounce) package cream cheese (you can try lowfat, but I never have)

- 2 tablespoons scallions or 2 tablespoons chives
directions
- With an electic mixer combine the cream cheese and the butter until light, fluffy and pale in color.
- Begin to chop the garlic roughly and than add the salt to the garlic to release the oils. Chop until very fine and almost like a paste.
