is the cream cheese 4 ounces or 1 cup?
4 oz of cream cheese = a 1/2 cup
Thanks.
I really like the simplicity of this recipe and was ready to make but…. the cream cheese amount confused me.
It’s 1/2 cup, I made the correction. Thanks for pointing it out and sorry for the confusion. I hope you’ll give this a try in the end 🙂
Thank you so much for letting us know the correct amount. In about five minutes, I making this dip. I’m going to do the base and let it sit overnight to let the flavors meld. Tomorrow before the party I’m attending I’ll add the cheese and olives. I sure hope it’s tasty!
Awesome, I hope everyone at the party enjoyed it :)!
Very cute idea!
Thanks Darlene :)!
