It’s getting near the end of January, and you know what that means…SUPER BOWL time!!

I know I’m a few weeks early, but I wanted to give you guys time to make room in your Super Bowl spread (you have one of those, right?) for this incredibly awesome dip!

I made these for you to make for your holiday party, so can we pretend that I didn’t make these super classy honey almond goat cheese truffles when I was home alone and then sit and eat all of them in my pajamas while watching The Food Network?

I vote yes. You’d never know, right? Our little secret.

But seriously. ‘Tis the season for subsisting solely on cookies and truffles and cheese and champagne. Whether you’re wearing a gorgeous sparkly dress and stilettos at a classy holiday party or your stretchy pants and a messy bun on the couch at home, it’s just the right thing to do!
