Creamy Blue Cheese Dip

Sue Lau's Note:

I like to use Maytag blue cheese for this party dip, but any blue cheese will do nicely. Serve this creamy delicious dip with chopped fresh vegetables, wedges of toasted pita bread, or roasted chicken nuggets.

This was excellent! Could not get the Maytag cheese you mention in the recipe and used a good Gorgonzola. The dip was creamy and with the right cheese flavor but not too overpowering. I did use 2 tablespoons of butter and not the three. Served it with cherry tomatoes, cucumber slices and small celery sticks. When I went back for another dip.....it was all gone, so that says it all!!!
