Cranberry-Pecan Spread

Recipe was adapted from a Townhouse Cracker box.

*Note: Liquid orange juice works very well, if not better. 
1 (8 oz.) pkg. cream cheese                         
1/8 - 1/4 cup concentrated orange juice*     
1/4 - 1/2 cup crushed pecans                        
1/4 - 1/2 cup craisins                                       
                                                                            
Blend cream cheese and orange juice until creamy (a food processor works well).  Stir in the crushed pecans and craisins.  Refrigerate for 30 minutes or more.  Serve with crackers.  Work with the ingredient amounts to see what works for you.
