Instructions
Place the crumbled 8 oz feta, ½ cup ricotta, and ¼ cup sour cream into a food processor. Add a pinch of salt and pepper.
Process for about 20 seconds, stop and scrape down the sides, then process for two more 20-second intervals (about 1 minute total) or until the mixture is smooth and spreadable.
Transfer the whipped cheese to a shallow dish or large plate and spread into an even layer. Set aside.
In a small saucepan, combine 5 tbsp honey, 1 tbsp olive oil, and 1 tsp minced garlic.
Heat the honey mixture over medium heat, stirring frequently, until it is hot and just begins to bubble.
Remove the pan from heat and stir in 2 tbsp lemon juice and 1 tsp red pepper flakes. Let the mixture cool and rest for 5 minutes.
Drizzle the cooled honey mixture evenly over the whipped feta mixture. Taste and add additional salt and pepper if desired.
Serve immediately.
