This was a very popular post from our Mormon Mavens blog, especially during the holiday season and into the New Year. Anna served it as part of her Christmas Eve meal appetizer offering this year. Just can’t tell you how good this is so you will have to experience it for yourself.
Don’t be afraid of the horseradish! It’s a subtle kick and the sweetness of the preserves and marmalade pair well with it.
I must apologize for the size of the cream cheese block on the image. Someone–who shall remain nameless–decided to cut a chunk off for their bagel one morning. Although the whipped cream cheese container was RIGHT NEXT TO IT. Just sayin’. I really need to label my blog recipe ingredients or something.
And a shout out for holding on to your Mom’s wedding china. This is served on a salad plate from her pattern. I have this and a bread plate. I try to use these treasured pieces from Mom, and from my grandmothers, to honor their memory and their homemaking.

Jezebel Sauce
- Yield: about 3 cups 1x
Description
A sweet topping for cream cheese that comes with just a little kick.
Ingredients
- 18-oz. jar of pineapple preserves
- 18-oz. jar of apricot preserves
- 1/2 cup orange marmalade
- 3.5-oz. jar of prepared horseradish
- 1 tablespoon dry mustard

Instructions
