Method
 

Step-By-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by removing the Boursin cheese from the refrigerator and allowing it to sit at room temperature for 15 to 20 minutes.
  2. While the Boursin is softening, combine the chopped, de-seeded tomatoes, fresh basil leaves, extra virgin olive oil, balsamic vinegar, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper in a small mixing bowl. Stir gently until well combined and let sit for 5 minutes.
  3. Once the Boursin cheese has softened, grab a shallow serving dish and spread the cheese evenly across the bottom using a spatula.
  4. Carefully spoon the prepared bruschetta mixture over the creamy Boursin layer, leaving any excess juices in the bowl.
  5. Drizzle the balsamic reduction over the topped Boursin Bruschetta Dip and garnish with extra basil leaves. Serve immediately with crispy crackers or crostini.
