Garlic Lovers Clam Dip Recipes

GARLIC LOVER'S CLAM DIP

Steps:

• Drain clam juice into a measuring cup or small container, and set aside.
• In a bowl, mix cream cheese, mayonnaise, Worcestershire sauce, and enough of the clam juice for the dip to reach your desired consistency (it shouldn't be too thick that it will break your chips). Reserve the rest of the clam juice.
• Mix in chopped clams and fresh garlic.
• Mix in garlic salt (to taste).
• The dip can be served immediately, or chilled in the refrigerator to serve later. As the dip will thicken in the fridge, stir in some of the reserved clam juice before serving to bring it back to a nice thickness for dipping.
• Serve with Classic Lay's or Ruffles potato chips.
