Notes
- Adjust spice level: If you prefer a spicier dip, feel free to add more Frank’s RedHot Sauce or a pinch of cayenne pepper.
- Make ahead: You can prepare the dip in advance and store it in the fridge for up to 2 days before baking.
- Leftovers: Store any leftover dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave or oven until warmed through.
- Cream cheese alternatives: You can substitute cream cheese with Greek yogurt for a lighter option or use a dairy-free cream cheese for a vegan version.
- Cheese options: If you like extra flavor, try adding a mix of cheddar and mozzarella cheese. You can also use sharp cheddar for a tangier taste.
