Good stuff - works well in a small crockpot too!

Thanx for posting this dip. It is absolutely fantastic! I used reduced-fat cream cheese and reduced-fat mayo, but you couldn't even notice. I think my 2-yr-old enjoyed this the most...lol. I caught him "double-dipping". He was using the same chip and just licking the dip off and dipping again and repeating! This recipe is a keeper!
