Ingredients

  • 2 packages cream cheese, softened 8 ounces each
  • 1 jar Heinz chili sauce 12 ounces
  • 2 teaspoons onion salt
  • potato chips

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, using an electric hand or stand mixer, whip cream cheese, chili sauce and onion salt until creamy and smooth.
  • Place dip in a covered container. Put in refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight before serving.
  • Serve with potato chips and enjoy.

Notes

  • Start with softened cream cheese. The softened cheese will be so much easier to mix up. To soften cream cheese, place it out at room temperature for 1-2 hours, or until you can quickly press into the cheese with your finger and leave an indent. 
  • Make the dip ahead of time. This allows the dip to chill, set, and for the flavors to develop. It can also save you last-minute fuss before hosting. Instead, just remove the dip from the fridge right before serving. Super easy! 
  • Add additional onion salt to taste. If you like your dip on the more salty or savory side, stir extra salt into the dip by ¼ teaspoon or until your liking. 
  • Double the recipe. If you are making dip for a large group, this recipe is very easy to multiply. Just double or triple the ingredients by the desired amount and follow the recipe directions as listed.
  • Store. Leftover dip can be stored covered in the refrigerator for 4-5 days. It does not freeze well.
