Notes

  • Texture Control If you prefer a chunkier dip, pulse the food processor rather than running it continuously.
  • Make Ahead This is a great "make-ahead" recipe. Making it 24 hours in advance allows the garlic and basil to infuse the cheese.
  • Serving Suggestions Serve with pita chips, sliced cucumbers, carrot sticks, or spread it onto a turkey sandwich for extra moisture and flavor.
