Notes
For best results, use full-fat cream cheese and sour cream. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. You can customize the toppings to your liking – try adding guacamole, pico de gallo, or a drizzle of ranch dressing. This dip is also delicious served warm! Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
