Steps:

• In a bowl with an electric mixer, or the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together the cream cheese and cheddar cheese until well combined and fluffy. Add the curry powder and mix in well.
• Spoon cheese mixture into a 6-inch springform pan or a similar sized dish or bowl. (*You can use any dish that will make the mixture about 1-inch thick).

• Meanwhile, make the topping by combining the topping ingredients and stirring together the ingredients. (*You can use any or all of the topping ingredients you like or have on hand. If you are skipping some, add a bit more of the ones you are using, until you have a thick topping mixture). You can cover and refrigerate separately until ready to serve or use right away.
• To serve, remove from springform pan, if using. Spoon topping overtop and serve with crackers, apple slices or Naan chips or crisps.
