Cheeseburger Dip

Cheeseburger dip is a great hot dip for football parties.
It has become a favorite party dip recipe of our friends and family. We actually had someone complain last year because we didn't put some out for one of our parties.
Cheese burger dip has a nice blend of cheese and spicy flavors from the chili sauce. The sour cream and refried beans gives it a nice smooth texture. You can serve this appetizer with breads, chips and vegetables.

Here’s A Funny Story
Last year my brother came downstairs in his bath robe during one of our parties. He then proceeded to spread the dip between two pieces of bread and eat it like a sandwich. Oh man… That was embarrassing! It’s like they say; “You can choose your friends but you can’t choose your family.”
