01 - 8 oz cream cheese, softened
02 - 6 oz plain Greek yogurt
03 - 1/4 cup sour cream
04 - 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
05 - 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
06 - 1/4 teaspoon salt
07 - 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
08 - 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
→ Accents & Decorations
09 - 1 to 2 baby carrots (for noses)
10 - 6 to 8 whole black peppercorns or diced black olives (for eyes and buttons)
11 - 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced (for scarves)
12 - 2 to 3 pretzel sticks (for arms)
13 - Fresh parsley or chive stems (for accents)
14 - Crackers, pita chips, or sliced vegetables for serving
# Method:
01 - Beat cream cheese in a medium bowl until smooth. Add Greek yogurt, sour cream, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until creamy and well combined. Stir in chopped chives.
02 - Spoon the dip onto a large serving plate or shallow bowl. Use a spatula to shape it into a lumpy melted snow puddle with uneven edges.
03 - Roll a small ball of dip or cream cheese for the head and place it at one end of the puddle. Insert a baby carrot as the nose. Add black peppercorns or diced olives for eyes and buttons. Drape a red bell pepper strip around the neck as a scarf. Stick pretzel sticks on each side for arms. Garnish with parsley or chive stems if desired.
04 - Arrange crackers, pita chips, or sliced vegetables around the dip and serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 4 hours.
