At Home Cooking: Chili Cheese Dip

When I am at home I have more access for appliances than I would at my dorm. Today my family had me make their favorite: Chili Cheese Dip. It is great for appetizer or for sports games or for a pot luck.

Also I want to thank my readers out there especially Dylan and Rachelle!!!!!!!! Thanks so much you two!

Materials:
  • Pie Pan
  • Oven
  • Spoon

Ingrediants:
  • 1 can of Chili
  • 1 package of Cream Cheese
  • Shredded Cheese
Ingredients
 First preheat the oven to 350. 

YAY OVEN!!!!
 Second, open the package of cream cheese and spread it at the bottom of the pie pan.

Smush it with the spoon!

Make it nice and smooth
 Next empty the can of chili and spread that over the cream cheese
2nd layer down one more to go
Top it with some shredded cheese
Looking better
Next put it in the oven, cook it until the cheese is melted and bubbling. Then let it cool and serve with chips. I didnt get a good picture of it with chips since my family ate it all!!! So here it is once it was cooling. 

TA DAAAAAA
Conclusion out of 5: 5- Excellent

Cost: 5, It is very easy and very cheap. Borders on 8 dollars for ingredients if I get name brands, store brands are even cheaper. 

Experience Cooking: 5, its almost routine, very easy. You can finish the combing the ingredients by the time the oven has fully preheated. Very Easy.

Time: 5, Very fast, all you have to do is warm it up until the cheese melts and bubbles. It takes about 15 minutes if that. 

Appearance: 4, Its not the prettiest thing in the world then again what were you expecting?

Taste: 5,creamy and heavy at the same time. The chips give it texture. Very tasty. Like I said my family loves this dish and it is my most requested dish when I go home.
