You can also add a splash of milk or cream to thin out the dip. - If you like a little heat, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes. - To make the dip ahead of time, cover it and refrigerate it for up to 3 days. When you're ready to serve, let it come to room temperature for about an hour before baking. - You can also bake the dip in a ramekin or small baking dish. Just adjust the baking time accordingly. - Serve the dip with crackers, bread, or vegetables.
