MUDSLIDE CHEESECAKE DIP

MUDSLIDE CHEESECAKE DIP
The holiday season is coming soon and if you are like Olivia and I that means carry-ins, entertaining, family get-togethers, and countless other opportunities to come up with new and innovative recipes.  This one came from www.insidebrucrew.com 

This decadent dip can be used as a snack, an appetizer, or even a easy and casual dessert.  It is rich and creamy and sure to not disappoint.  If you don't have large sizes of the liquor it calls for, check the local liquor store for small sample sized bottles or try one of the non-alcohol versions listed below.  You may like it so much you have a hard time remembering it is a dip and you might just attack it with a spoon!  Enjoy!
