Ingredients

Here’s everything you’ll need to make this delicious dip. You can find the full ingredients list along with measurements and instructions in the recipe card below.

Garlic And Herb Boursin Cheese- Super creamy and loaded with flavorful herbs, creating the perfect base.
Fig Jam- Adds a sweet, jammy contrast that balances the savory cheese. ( I used the brand Dalmatia)
Chopped Pistachios- Adds the perfect amount of crunch and salty nuttiness. ( I used the brand Wonderful Pistachios)
Hot Honey- Sweet heat that ties everything together and elevates the dip. (I used the brand Zab's)
Crackers- Use a good sturdy cracker like Firehook Classic Sea Salt to make sure they don't crack when dipping.

Instructions

Here’s how to make this amazingly delicious dip. You can find the full ingredients along with instructions in the recipe card below.

First, place both packages of Boursin in a shallow serving dish and spread evenly. Spoon the fig jam over the cheese and gently spread it to cover.

PRO TIP: Let the Boursin sit at room temperature for 10–15 minutes for easier spreading.

Now, sprinkle the chopped pistachios evenly over the fig layer. Drizzle the top with the hot honey.

PRO TIP: Don’t overdo the hot honey. A light drizzle goes a long way

PRO TIP: Use a shallow dish so you get all the layers in every scoop.
