How to Cut Up VELVEETA
Cut VELVEETA (the whole loaf) into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Then, cut each slice crosswise in both directions to make cubes.
Use Your Slow Cooker
When serving this dip at a party, pour the prepared dip into a small slow cooker set on Low. This will keep the dip warm and at the ideal consistency for several hours. For best results, stir the dip occasionally to prevent hot spots.

Sounds good like a good dish. :) I'm looking forward to the superbowl, I think it's going to be a good game.
Love the sounds of this dip! And I like your suggestion to keep it warm throughout the game in a slow cooker. I dougt it would last long though. :)
