Recipe type: Dip
Cuisine: Appetizer
Serves: 8
Ingredients
  • 1 (8 ounce) cream cheese
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • ¾ cup milk
  • 1 can Rotel Tomatoes
  • ½ lb Spicy Italian Sausage, casing removed and cooked
  • 1½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • cheese and cilantro for garnish if desired
  • Corn chips or chunks of crusty bread (for serving)
Instructions
  1. In a medium-sized saucepan, melt butter on medium heat. While the butter is melting, break the cream cheese apart and add it to the butter. Stir the mixture it until it smooths out. I prefer to use a wooden spoon for this part and then switch to a whisk once the cream cheese gets nice and soft. (See picture above.)
  2. Once the cream cheese is soft, add milk ¼ cup at a time, whisking in between until mixture is smooth.
  3. Once all of the milk has been added and the mixture is smooth, turn heat to low, add Rotel and cooked sausage. Mix to combine.
  4. Next, add shredded cheese and mix until cheese is melted.
  5. Serve immediately, or if you need to keep it warm, put it in a small crockpot on warm or leave it on the stove on the lowest possible setting, covered and stir occasionally.
  6. Serve with corn chips or crusty bread pieces.
  7. Enjoy!
