This makes an excellent topping for a wedge salad. Just add a wedge of iceberg, half of a chopped tomato and two slices of crumbled bacon. It can also be made as just a plain blue cheese dressing by skipping the paprika and chile powder.

== Ingredients ==
 * 2 cups (8 oz) crumbled blue cheese
 * 1/2 cup mayonnaise
 * 2 tablespoons of buttermilk (plus more as desired)
 * 1 clove chopped garlic
 * 1/2 teaspoon chipotle chile powder (or one canned chipotle)
 * 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
 * 2 teaspoons white wine vinegar
 * 1/2 cup sour cream
 * salt and pepper
 
== Instructions ==
 1. Set aside half of the blue cheese and the sour cream. Blend remaining ingredients with a blender until they reach the desired consistency, add more buttermilk for a thinner dressing.
 1. Mix in sour cream and serve with crumbled blue cheese on top
