Wow did I make a huge mistake, I let DH watch me put this together. I do have to admit that I cut it way down because I only had a small amount of cream cheese to use up. Thought this would be perfect...but no!!!...I didn't make enough. Anyway while my back was turned DH decided he needed a snack...well...guess what his snack was? I caught him in the act and...I guess I said a few choice words...%@#$ are you doing? That has to sit for 8 hours!!! Final result was he said "I rate this a 10 star"...and looked so cute that I couldn't continue to be upset...although I did snatch it from him and tried to recover enough to photograph it. Excellent! It's a keeper. Thanks for posting. :)

I love this as a spread for crackers and also as a dressing. I use buttermilk and a little bit of mayo to thicken. Delicious!

Sure did enjoy this cheesy spread! I did reduce by half, tho now I'm sorry for that! I used this to make recipe#436243, which was just lovely! I also served as a spread, with different dippers (including crostini, Ritz crackers, cheese straws, and rice crisps) and it was really good also. Thanks so much for sharing, Sydney Mike!
