Notes
Soften the Cream Cheese:Make sure your cream cheese is fully softened before mixing it with the other ingredients. This ensures a smooth and creamy dip without any lumps. Adjust the Spice Level:If you prefer a spicier dip, you can add more cayenne pepper or even a dash of hot sauce. Alternatively, leave it out if you want a milder flavor. Chill for Optimal Flavor:Don’t skip the chilling step! Allowing the dip to rest in the fridge for at least 30 minutes enhances the flavor profile by allowing the ingredients to meld together.
