For an elevated presentation, consider using individual ramekins instead of a baking dish. Experiment with different types of seafood, such as shrimp or lobster, to customize the dip to your liking. Garnish with fresh parsley or chives for a pop of color and added freshness. If you want a spicier dip, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce to the mixture. Ensure the cream cheese is fully softened to avoid lumps in the final product.
