So my obsession with this Salmon Cream Cheese Spread started when I was probably eight years old.  I went over to a friend's house and she introduced me to a store-bought version, and it was love at first taste.  Even though it was a big name brand, it has still been kind of hard to locate in stores sometimes. But while perusing Pinterest one day many years later, I saw a Salmon dip.  And I was like, YES! That's what I need. So here we are.

The original store-bought kind that I loved first had something akin to bacon bits, but salmon flavored in it. This Salmon Cream Cheese Spread has real, fresh salmon in it.  And it is so good. I make it every chance I get. Holidays, Christmas, Easter, and sometimes for a snack.

Making your own Salmon Cream Cheese Spread is simple. Just mix all your ingredients in a bowl and chill for at least an hour before serving.  So good! Enjoy!

    Hi, Michelle. I just saved your post in my pinterest. I have a question about the salmon. In one place it states you use fresh baked salmon and in another place it says cold, smoked salmon which is normally not baked. So, do you bake the salmon or do you used smoked salmon (like Lox)? Thanks for the clarification.

      It is cold smoked. I have updated the recipe from the original recently (way better!) but haven't had the chance to update the writing yet!
