Notes
- If the dip has thickened after sitting, add one tablespoon of milk at a time until it thins out.
- Let the cream cheese soften, or it will be difficult to combine with the other ingredients.
- I like my blue cheese dip a little on the spicy side, but adjust the amount to your liking.
- The dip will keep up to 1 week in the refrigerator.
