My mom has been making this layered chip dip since I was a kid and itβs always the first to go at any get together π
Itβs dangerously addicting because her secret is to add chive & onion cream cheese into the sour cream to add a TON of flavor to the base layer! It also makes the base layer thick, fluffy and creamy to stack on the next layers!
What youβll need:
π§ 16 oz chive and onion cream cheese softened
π§ 2 cups of sour cream
π§ 16 oz salsa
π§ 3-4 cups freshly shredded sharp cheddar or marble cheese
Simple, nostalgic and impossible to stop eating π
