Notes
- How to Quickly Bring Cream Cheese to Room Temperature: If you forgot to leave your cream cheese out to soften, you can bring the block of cream cheese to room temperature quickly with either of these two methods:
- Hot Shrimp Dip: Transfer the dip to an oven-safe dish and bake at 350°F until bubbly and heated through (about 15-20 minutes). You can even add cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, and/or Parmesan cheese on top, and then pop it under the broiler. Keep an eye on the dish and broil just until the cheese is melted and brown on top (it can burn quickly).
- Remove cream cheese from packaging, cut it into small cubes, and allow the cream cheese to sit out on a plate for 15-20 minutes; or

- Remove cream cheese from packaging and place on a microwave-safe plate. Microwave in 10-second increments, flipping the cream cheese over after each 10-minute segment, for a total of about 30 seconds (or until the cream cheese softens). Be careful that you don't completely melt the cream cheese!
