Guacamole dip consists of mashed avocados, chili peppers, and sometimes tomatoes and other vegetables. But if you overdo the peppers, it can become unpleasant to eat. If you have made a fresh batch of guacamole and accidentally made it a bit too spicy, it is possible to de-spice the guacamole dip. By simply adding a few more ingredients to the overly spicy guacamole that you have already prepared, you can drastically reduce the burn caused by the spicy dip.

Step 1
Mash additional avocados and mix them into the guacamole you prepared earlier. This will spread the spice across more avocados and lower the overall spiciness.
Step 2
Add a dairy component. The fats in dairy lessen the impact of hot chilis, so try folding in cream cheese, sour cream, or topping it with shredded cheese.
Step 3
Juice a lime and fold it into the guacamole. Citrus provides a good counterpoint to spicy food, and the citric acid will also prevent the guacamole from browning.
