Another Appetizer

When we know people are coming over, we usually add a little beer to the larder. Here’s a beery snack that will please you and your visitors.

Beer Dip

Ingredients

16 ounces cream cheese
⅓ cup beer (with or without alcohol)
1 envelope Ranch salad dressing mix (or make your own: ask if you want a recipe)
2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded

Let the cream cheese come to room temperature, then mix with all other ingredients.

Serve with any dippers you like: pretzels, vegetables, chips, pork rinds, or crackers come to mind.

Instead of cheddar, use your favorite party cheese. Different aged, hard cheeses make entirely different and delicious alternative dips.
