- For extra spice, add chopped jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce to the dip before cooking.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated gently on the stovetop or in the microwave.
- Make sure cream cheese is softened to ensure smooth mixing.
- Serve warm to maintain creamy texture and flavor.
