Notes
- Store leftover dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days; it's best served chilled!
- Since there is no cooking involved, there is no need to reheat, but allow the dip to sit at room temperature for 1015 minutes before serving for a softer texture.
- Arrange your dip on a festive platter with a variety of dippers like ginger snaps, apple slices, and pretzel rods for a beautiful and delicious presentation.
- For an extra burst of flavor, use a highquality vanilla extract; the subtle nuances really shine through in this simple dip.
