Jalapeño Popper Dip
Submitted by Aaron Bruns
Ingredients
- 2 pkgs. 8 oz. each cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup pepper jack cheese plus additional for sprinkling on top
- 1 can 4 oz. diced jalapeño peppers, drained
- 1/4 cup Italian style bread crumbs
Instructions
- In a medium microwave-safe bowl, using a mixer on medium speed, beat cream cheese, mayonnaise, and sour cream until smooth. Stir in cheddar cheese, pepper jack cheese, and jalapeño peppers. Microwave dip mixture for about 3 minutes. Pour dip into a serving dish. Sprinkle with bread crumbs and pepper jack cheese. Broil for 1-2 minutes or until cheese is melted. Serve with sliced bread, tortilla chips, or crackers. Serves 12. Note: I pair this with bagel or pita chips.
Notes
“I’ve had jalapeno lovers rave about it and those who might not necessarily care for spicy foods. The dip mellows out the intensity, making this an approachable appetizer for anyone.” ~ Aaron Bruns
