Notes
- Be sure your cream cheese is softened before mixing, otherwise it will be lumpy (instead of smooth and creamy which will make your dip) which will effect the dip.
- Check to ensure you're using unsulphered molasses in this recipe. Sulphered molasses contains different chemicals that can give sweet recipes an artificial, or even metallic, taste.
- You can technically use a smaller mixing bowl, but I recommend using a large one so that nothing flies out when mixing. Less worry, only one bowl to clean up, and no countertops to scrub down afterwards.
- For a fun finish top the dip with festive sprinkles just before serving. Kids will find it adorable, it makes for a more finished presentation, and gives it a more fun flourish.
- To make this dip appear as a whole spread on your holiday menu or dessert table, place the bowl of dip in the center of a serving board and arrange a variety of dipping options around the outside.
