Prep time: 5 mins
Cook time: 20 mins
Total time: 25 mins
Ingredients
  • 16 oz cream cheese
  • 1 10 oz can of Rotel Chili Fixin's
  • Paprika or chili powder for garnish
  • optional: additional tomato juice, V-8, tomato sauce, or milk or cream for desired consistency
Instructions
  1. Leave packages of cream cheese out for 2+ hours so it reaches room temperature.
  2. Dump cream cheese in a medium mixing bowl and stir in 1 can of Rotel Chili Fixin's. Stir with a fork to blend well (or a hand mixer).
  3. If desired, warm in oven at 200 degrees for 20 minutes (or microwave a minute or two), sprinkle with paprika or chili powder and serve with chips.
  4. Note: This dip can be served warm or cold but will become more solid the colder it is. If more viscous consistency is desired, you can also stir in liquid such as tomato sauce or milk as above. Or heat it in oven; of course you can do both to get desired result.
