Recipe Notes

from Australia’s Best Recipes team

Use cream or sour cream as preferred. Quantities can be varied depending on preference of texture. Goes well served with homemade garlic and herb bread. If you don't have a mini blender, use a regular blender to combine and then return to saucepan. Use salt reduced cream cheese and cream or sour cream.
