Notes
- This recipe makes 1.5 cups of dip - about 12 ounces.
- Full fat cream cheese and sour cream works best. The flavor is richer and the dip has a creamier texture than when we use low-fat products.
- Red food coloring could be used to make the dip pink/red in color. It could be added as an optional ingredient.
- If you want a stronger mint flavor, you can add more peppermint extract AFTER mixing the dip together.
