Unexpected Company Cheese Dip

JackieOhNo!'s Note:

I generally have the ingredients needed to this dip, so it's great to throw together when unexpected company comes around. All I need to do is soften the butter and cream cheese in the trusty microwave. Great with celery and carrot sticks and/or crackers. You can also add herbs of your choice.

I made this for the upcoming weeekend football games, but cut this to 1/4 of the recipe, as company wasn't coming. I followed exactly as written and this is a very tasty dip/spread. What I liked most is that it works well with both veggies and crackers, not a runny dip. The only thing I might change would be to sub garlic powder for more even distribution throughout. Thanks for sharing Jackie. Made for Newest zaar tag.
