🧀 Cream Cheese Cracker Dip (Step-by-Step Recipe)
⭐ Ingredients
- 8 oz (225g) cream cheese, softened
- 2–4 tablespoons milk or heavy cream (to adjust texture)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder (optional but recommended)
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 1–2 tablespoons chopped chives or green onions (optional)
- ½ teaspoon dried dill or parsley (optional for freshness)
- Crushed red pepper flakes (optional for a little heat)
- Crackers of your choice for serving
🥣 Step 1: Soften the Cream Cheese
Start by taking the cream cheese out of the fridge at least 20–30 minutes before preparing the dip. Soft cream cheese is important because it blends smoothly and prevents lumps.
If you’re short on time, you can microwave it for about 10–15 seconds—but don’t overheat it.
