Dipper Ideas

This artichoke and jalapeno dip works well with all sorts of different dippers.  Sometimes it’s fun to have a whole variety of options, but sometimes I’ll throw out a bag of chips and call it a day!  Here are some of our favorites:

• Raw veggies (baby carrots, celery sticks, cucumbers, bell peppers)
• Tortilla chips
• Potato chips
• Pretzels
• Sliced baguette bread
• Pita Chips
• Crackers (Triscuits, Wheat Thins or Ritz Crackers)

Ingredients You Will Need

• Cream Cheese – make sure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature.
• Sour Cream – you can use either full-fat or lite sour cream.
• Artichoke Hearts – canned or jarred marinated hearts or freshly baked hearts will both work great.
• Parmesan Cheese – use either grated or shredded Parmesan cheese.
• Shredded Cheese – we usually use mozzarella, but Pepper Jack would work great, too.
• Diced Jalapeños – canned jalapeños are considerably milder than fresh jalapeños. 
• Diced Green Chilis – these add a great amount of heat and flavor.
• Garlic Powder and Onion Powder – these add a nice sweet onion and garlic flavor without fresh onions and garlic chunky texture.

How to Make Jalapeño Artichoke Dip

1. Mix the ingredients.  In the bowl of a stand mixer, add the room temperature cream cheese and sour cream.  Using the paddle attachment, mix on medium speed until well combined.  Add the chopped artichoke hearts, Parmesan cheese, 1 cup mozzarella cheese, diced jalapeños, diced green chilies, garlic powder and onion powder to the cream cheese mixture and mix on low speed until well combined. 
2. Spread into a baking dish.  Spread the dip into an 8″x8″, 9″x9″ or 12″ round baking dish and top with the remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese.
3. Bake.  Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are bubbly and the top is golden brown.
4. Cool and serve.  Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving with your favorite crackers, chips or veggies.  Enjoy!

Recipe Tips

• This recipe works great as a make-ahead appetizer.  Mix the ingredients, spread them into your baking dish, cover, and chill overnight.
• If you like things extra spicy, add in fresh chopped jalapeños.  
• Make sure your cream cheese is at room temperature to mix well with the other ingredients.  If you forget to pull it out ahead of time, you can transfer it to a microwave-safe container and heat it for about 10 seconds at a time just until softened.
• It never hurts to season with a little extra salt and pepper!
• You can also make this recipe in a food processor.  Just add the cream cheese and sour cream first and pulse until smooth.  Next, add the rest of the ingredients and pulse just enough to break them up.  Transfer to your baking dish and top with the extra ½ cup of cheese.
