I think I read in another post that someone suggested making these into a dip. I really like this idea, has anyone tried it? Do you need to double the recipe and how long do you cook it for? Any help would be appreciated

Thanks
Danielle

That's what I do!
 
Hi Danielle,I'm so glad you like the idea of turning these into a dip. I have tried it before and it turned out delicious! I would suggest doubling the recipe, as the dip tends to disappear quickly at parties or gatherings. As for cooking time, I would recommend checking on it after about 15-20 minutes in the oven, but it may take up to 30 minutes depending on the consistency you prefer. I hope this helps, happy cooking!Best,
