Notes
- Always shred your own cheese - pre-shredded varieties contain anti-caking agents that affect the texture.
- Use room-temperature cheese for the smoothest blending and best consistency.
- Refrigerate for two hours before serving to let flavors develop.
- Add extra mayo one tablespoon at a time if the spread doesn't mix together well.
- Store in an airtight container and use clean utensils when serving.
