Chop Cranberries in a food processor until they are finely minced (but not a liquid).
Place chopped cranberries in a medium bowl. Stir in sugar, chili powder, jalapeños, green onion, cilantro, and lemon juice. Cover and refrigerate for at least a couple hours (up to overnight) so flavors can incorporate.
Meanwhile, in your KitchenAid stand mixer with the paddle attachment, whip your softened cream cheese with the cheddar, and add 2-3 shakes of garlic powder.
Spread cream cheese in the bottom of a serving dish (or pie plate). Refrigerate until ready to serve, or if ready to serve, top with cranberry mixture.
Serve right away, or cover and store in refrigerator until ready to serve.
Notes
Discard after a week if not fully consumed. Enjoy!
