  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder or 1 teaspoon minced garlic

  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise I used Dukes
  • 5 to 6 drops hot sauce more or less

Notes

If it's been in the fridge, let it set out a few minutes and stir before serving, the cream cheese does make it thick.
