Recipe Notes
The secret to a very creamy and fluffy dip is to use cream cheese that is very soft. Not straight from the fridge, not warmed up in a microwave, not room temperature for 30 minutes. If your cream cheese is not soft, it will not whip well and your dip will end up with dots of cream cheese and not look appetizing. This tip can be applied to making any dips with cream cheese, cheesecake and cheesecake bars.
You can make the dip one day ahead and store in fridge. It’s still creamy, fluffy and delicious.
