Kraft Kitchens Tips

Shortcut

For one less bowl to wash, add pesto and milk to remaining reduced-fat cream cheese in tub, then stir until blended.

Make Ahead

The two layers of dip can be made up to 1 day ahead and stored in separate tightly covered containers in the refrigerator. For best results, layer the dips no more than 2 hours before serving.
