This sour cream chili sauce comes together in five minutes with a single bowl and a spoon. Mayonnaise and sour cream in equal parts give a thick, cool base, and the chili sauce adds sweetness and tang while a small pinch of cayenne brings a slow, background heat. The range given for the chili sauce lets you set the strength yourself. Use it as a dip or a spread.

Instructions

Measure the mayonnaise and sour cream into a medium bowl, then add the chili sauce and the cayenne pepper.

Stir everything together until the mixture is one even color with no streaks of white or red left.

Taste a small spoonful. If you want more heat and tang, stir in a little more chili sauce, staying within the 2 ounce limit.
