Procedure for obtaining a spreadable cream of extra virgin olive oil enriched in phytosterols and product obtained. The invention consists of a procedure for obtaining an extra virgin olive oil spreadable cream, replacing the classic margarines and butters, the intake of which allows the LDL cholesterol level to be significantly reduced. To do this, the process consists of preparing a mixture by heating the EVOO and adding the phytosterol extract together with the thickener, aromas and/or sweeteners. The mixture is stirred for a certain time at very low revolutions until it becomes homogeneous, packing it hot and letting it cool to room temperature, thus obtaining a product of different consistency and viscosity, easy to spread on toast, sandwiches, as an appetizer, accompanied by cheeses, meats, etc. (Machine-translation by Google Translate, not legally binding)
