Cooking Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).

Beat Miracle Whip (1 cup) , Cream Cheese (1 cup) , juice from Lemon (1) , Worcestershire Sauce (1 tsp) , and Canned Chicken Breast (2 1/2 cups) together using an electric mixer. Put into a serving bowl.

Crush Crackers (8) into small crumbs using a food processor or place crackers in a zip top bag and crush with a rolling pin or pan.

Divide crackers into two small zip top bags. Add drops of Red Food Coloring (to taste) into one bag and Blue Food Coloring (to taste) into the other. Shake to blend the color with the crumbs. Add more coloring if needed until you get the desired color.

Set star shaped cookie cutters on the dip. Snip a small opening in the corner of the bag filled with the red crumbs. Shake crumbs into the star cutter. Spread evenly and don't overfill or they'll lose their shape.

Bake for about 15 minutes at 350 degrees F (180 degrees C) just until the dip is hot. Alternatively, use a microwave. Serve immediately with crackers.

Author's Notes

If you want to make the dip ahead of time, refrigerate the decorated dip for up to several hours.

Heat in the oven just before serving.

You can alternatively heat the chicken dip in the microwave on high for 2-3 minutes until hot.
