Cooking Tips |
|
To make ahead: Prepare the
whole dip (but don't bake it). Cover tightly for up to 24 hours.
To heat, let dip sit at room temperature for 1 hour, then
sprinkle with cheese and bake, covered with foil, in a 450
degree oven for 10 minutes. Remove foil and bake until golden
brown and heated through, about 15 minutes longer. |
