Notes
- Chill time is key: Chilling the dip for at least an hour helps the flavors develop and gives the dip a firmer texture.
- Add sprinkles just before serving: This helps the sprinkles maintain their color and prevent them from bleeding into the dip.
- Use holiday-themed sprinkles: Choose festive red, green, white, or gold sprinkles to give the dip a Christmas look.
