Mary Berry Stilton Dip

Mary Berry Stilton Dip

Mary Berry Stilton Dip is a no-cook, creamy dip made by blending crumbled Stilton cheese with soft cream cheese, fresh herbs, and a touch of acidity from lemon or Worcestershire sauce. The result is a smooth, flavour-packed spread with a balance of saltiness, tang, and richness. This dip is perfect for entertaining and works equally well as a starter, sandwich spread, or topping for baked potatoes.

Ingredients

  • 150g Stilton cheese, crumbled

  • 150g full-fat cream cheese, softened

  • 2 tablespoons sour cream or crème fraîche

  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice or ½ tsp Worcestershire sauce

  • 1 tablespoon fresh chives or parsley, finely chopped

  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

  • Optional: A pinch of garlic powder, a drizzle of honey, or chopped walnuts for serving

Instructions

  • Cream the base – In a bowl, beat 150g cream cheese until smooth and fluffy.

  • Add Stilton for flavour – Mix in 150g crumbled Stilton, using a fork to combine evenly.

  • Stir in creaminess – Add 2 tbsp sour cream to loosen the mixture and create a smooth dip.

  • Add acidity – Stir in 1 tbsp lemon juice or a splash of Worcestershire sauce to balance richness.

  • Season and finish – Add chopped herbs, salt, and pepper; adjust the consistency by adding more sour cream if needed.

  • Serve chilled – Transfer to a bowl and refrigerate for 20 minutes to allow the flavours to meld.
