Gently fold in the remaining blue cheese crumbles, ensuring an even distribution throughout the dressing.
Taste the dressing and adjust the seasoning if needed, adding more salt or pepper to suit your preference.
Transfer the dressing to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Before serving, sprinkle fresh chopped chives on top for an optional garnish.
Serve as a dip for fresh vegetables, chicken wings, or chips, or use it as a salad dressing. Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 5-7 days.
