Instructions
Place chipotle and cream cheese in a food processor (I use the mini-processor that came with my immersion blender) and blend until smooth.

Spread onto a hard cracker or melba toast.
Garnish each toast with 1-2 capers and chives.
Notes
Chipotle (in adobo sauce) can usually be found in small cans in the Latin foods aisle at your market. One can will last a long time, so store leftovers in a ziploc bag in the freezer.Most markets carry boxes of melba toast in the cracker aisle. Any hard cracker will work. Two Urban Licks serves this spread on homemade potato chips, so you could also make your own potato chips (or substitute store-bought kettle chips).
