This secret recipe was passed on to me by my MIL. She said it came from her mother, who got it from a chef at a country club. The chef, so the story goes, required that she keep the recipe a secret and forbid that it be shared. Since the chef is (by now) long passed, I feel comfortable sharing the recipe. I normally make double batches, it will not last. I tried it with fat-free cream cheese and my husband rejected it. Personally, I thought it worked just fine.

Ingredients

12 serv.
  • cream cheese8 ounces
  • beef bouillon cube1
  • water1 tablespoon
  • onions2 tablespoons
  • celery1 bunch

Step-by-step instructions

  1. 1

    Soften the cream cheese to room temperature. Dissolve the bouillon cube in very hot water. Mince the onion very very finely (mush it up). Clean the celery.

  2. 2

    Combine cream cheese and bouillon water. Use your mixer and whip it until fluffy and soft.

  3. 3

    Spread onto celery sticks (or put the dip in the middle of a bowl and place celery sticks around it).

  4. 4

    The dip can be made in advance (up to 2 days). I generally "garnish" with a sprinkle of celery powder to give interest to the plate.
