Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Saucepan
  • Slow Cooker
  • Spatula
  • Serving Tray
  • Freezer

Method
 

  1. Add cream cheese and milk into saucepan over medium-low heat while stirring until silky and smooth.
  2. Mix cheddar and mozzarella cheese gradually into warm mixture until fully melted without clumps remaining.
  3. Stir Rotel tomatoes and garlic powder into cheese mixture until evenly combined and creamy throughout.
  4. Simmer dip gently for several minutes until thickened slightly with smooth scoopable texture for serving.

Notes

Add extra milk for softer creamy texture or simmer longer for thicker consistency. Freeze cooled leftovers carefully in airtight containers for shorter storage periods. Customize flavor with jalapenos, sausage, or taco seasoning. Stir slowly while reheating to maintain smooth texture. Refrigerate leftovers safely up to four days after serving.
