Recipe Notes
Optional: If you’d like a warm and cheesy dip, transfer the mixture to an oven-friendly baking dish. Mix in half of the cheese, and then sprinkle the rest on top. Bake at 400F until the cheese is golden brown and bubble on top. Serve warm with your favorite bread, crackers, or veggies.
