Notes

  • You can use any kind of chili you like even if it is the kind with beans. If you have leftover homemade chili, you could also use 2 scant cups of that instead.
  • Softening the cream cheese to room temperature will help the dip mix together easier.
  • Serve it with extra tortilla chips for dipping.
