Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a small saucepan over low heat, add 8 oz cubed Velveeta cheese and 4 oz softened cream cheese. Stir gently until cheeses begin melting and combining, about 2-3 minutes.
  2. Step 2: Add 1/2 cup mild salsa and stir until fully incorporated and mixture is smooth, about 3-4 minutes. The dip should be creamy with visible salsa flecks.
  3. Step 3: If dip is too thick, stir in 1/4 cup milk until it reaches a dip-able consistency. Remove from heat and serve immediately.
