I’ve Died and Gone to Garlic Heaven


The most amazing garlic basil dip I've ever created

 Ingredients

3oz cream cheese

3oz gorgonzola crumbles, divided

5 medium sized basil leaves

¼ cup milk

2 whole heads of garlic 

Olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste 

Chives for garnish 

1 baguette 


Directions

  1. First roast the garlic by removing any excess paper layers, and cutting off the top 1/4 of the heads. Place in tinfoil and drizzle with olive oil. Seel the tinfoil, and bake at 375° for about 20 to 25 minutes. (I’ve learned the hard way that it doesn’t take as long as you think). 

  2. While the garlic is in the oven, in a food processor, combine cream cheese, 2oz of the Gorgonzola crumbles, and basil. Slowly incorporate the milk until a dip consistency is achieved (You may need less or more milk, depending on your preference). Add salt and pepper to taste. Then add the remaining 1oz Gorgonzola crumbles to combine. Top with chopped chives.

  3. Next, slice up the baguette and bake until lightly toasted. 

  4. Enjoy!
