Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°F. Combine cream cheese, goat cheese, salt, black pepper, and garlic in a food processor. Process until smooth, about 1 minute, stopping to scrape down sides as needed. Transfer mixture to a medium bowl, and stir in 1/4 cup chives.

Step 2

Spoon mixture evenly into a shallow 1 1/2-quart baking dish. Bake in preheated oven until heated through, 15 to 18 minutes. Place pepper jelly in a medium bowl, and whisk vigorously to loosen. Spread pepper jelly over hot dip; garnish with additional chives. Serve immediately with crudités and bread.
