  • Flavor Variations: Add a pinch of sea salt to the dip for a salted caramel version, or mix in a bit of cinnamon for a warm, spiced flavor.
  • Make-Ahead: The dip can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Let it come to room temperature before serving.
  • Leftovers: Store any leftover dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It should keep well for up to 3 days.
