Apricot Horseradish Cream Cheese Cracker Dip

I first started making this tasty treat back in the 1980's and have no idea how long it's been around or if it has a catchier name but... My hand written recipe calls this Cracker Dip and it's perfect if you're looking for a great last minute snack for the Super Bowl:@) The apricot jam is sweet, horseradish zippy, mustard tangy and it's all mellowed by the cream cheese. Don't get too hung up on the jams, use what you have, all apricot, all peach or half of the gold jam can be subbed with strawberry.
This ~Super Bowl Party~ size recipe is easily cut in half or even a quarter (which is what I did).
Leftovers are great on a bagel.
There's a similar diabetic version HERE.

Cracker Dip

Here's to great snacks and a fun game:@)
