This is something I put together for my hubby's birthday and he loved it. It is very creamy rich, spicy,and just yummy. I have made it for my father-n-law as well as my hubby's brother and their friends and they loved it. They like it really spicy so add more cayenne pepper. Also I sprinkle crushed red pepper on top that gives it more of a kick and makes it pretty.
