Gold Star Chili Holiday Pine Cone Dip

Prep Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 50 minutes

I like to make small versions of party foods such as dip so that it stays looking great for the entire party. Making this dip into 6 pinecones ensures that I can replenish with fresh and appetizing dips all night long. Since they freeze well, the little pine cones make a great hostess gift or holiday treat for your neighbors and friends.

Directions

Combine ingredients by hand or in the bowl of a mixer on low speed. Use a large scoop or measuring cup to portion into 6 balls.

Chill 30 minutes. Working with one at a time, gently shape the mixture into a pine cone shape.

Starting at the bottom, insert sliced almonds to create the look of a pine cone.

Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Note: To freeze: Prepare up to adding sliced almonds. Thaw slightly before adding almonds; serve.

Yield:	Makes 6 small pine cone dips (each serves about 4)

What's Needed:

3 8 -ounce packages cream cheese, softened

1 8-ounce package sharp cheddar cheese, shredded

1 10 -ounce can Gold Star Chili®

½ cup grated onion

Gold Star Chili® Hot Sauce, to taste

Sliced almonds, toasted

Crackers, pretzels or breadsticks for serving
