BLUE CHEESE DIP

By LIZABETH

Ingredients

• Blue Cheese Dip
• 1 cup blue cheese, crumbled, plus a little for garnish
• 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 1 1/4 cups sour cream
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• Zest of 1 lemon
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• Salt and pepper to taste

Preparation

Step 1

In a medium bowl, cream together the blue and cream cheeses. (This recipe can also be prepared in a food processor.) Add the sour cream and mix until well-incorporated. Stir in the remaining ingredients.

Transfer to a serving dish. Sprinkle a little crumbled blue cheese on top.

Refrigerate for several hours to let the flavors meld, then set it out about 30 minutes before serving. Serve slightly chilled. Makes about 3 cups.
