- 1 Tablespoon Milk

Why we love this recipe..
This is another recipe passed down from my dear mother. It was a Thanksgiving and Christmas tradition that she started and passed down to us. Even though this recipe is so easy to make ourselves, we never did. It was something we knew Mom would be making for us and we couldn’t wait to get to her house to eat it. This favorite treat was something we would snack on while we waited for the meal. Now that she has passed away, you will find it in all of our homes each holiday. It is now our tradition and we make sure to have it available for all to enjoy in her honor.
6 super simple ingredients is all that is needed.
- Philadelphia Cream Cheese
- A dash of Milk to make it smooth and creamy
- Green Onion
- Salt
- Pepper
