To make the Cream Cheese & Garlic Mayo Dip
Mix in ½ block of Cream Cheese
With 3 tablespoon of Garlic Mayo. (If you have unflavored Mayo, then consider adding 3 finely chopped garlic cloves along with the Mayonnaise).
Add in 3 teaspoon of Garlic & Herb Butter. If you have Normal Butter, then add Oregano and 2 cloves of chopped garlic with the Butter.
Add in two drops of Wasabi Mayo into this. Do not replace this with Wasabi sauce as that's extremely spicy. Also, if you do not have this, then just skip it as it has no other alternative.
Finally, mix all the sauces together with the Cream Cheese.
Season it with freshly cracked black pepper and salt. (If you have ground black pepper, use only ½ teaspoon of it as it's very spicy)
Also sprinkle a pinch of dried Basil and Red Pepper Flakes on your dip.
Finally serve it with your Leprechaun Veggie Platter.
