Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the chopped walnuts out on the sheet. Bake them at 350 degrees for 5 minutes. Stir the walnuts and bake for another 3 minutes. Allow them to cool before adding them to the dip.
Combine the blue cheese, cream cheese and milk in a mixing bowl and beat on medium-low for about a minute to avoid breaking up all of the crumbles but still ensure each bite is packed with flavor. Fold in the cooled toasted walnuts.
To prepare this dip hot, bake for 18 minutes at 350 degrees or until thoroughly heated.
Drizzle balsamic glaze over the top of the hot or cold dip. For the hot variation, serve with fresh, crusty bread cut into bite-sized pieces. For the hot variation, serve with crackers and an assortment of vegetables.
