Jalapeno Popper Dip Recipe

Jalapeno Popper DipI saw a photo come across Pinterest that read “Jalapeno Popper Dip.”  I decided right then and there that I MUST have some and the sooner the better.  Then I clicked on the recipe.  It contained mayonnaise, and while I like mayonnaise I’m not a huge fan of it in dips.  I did an online search of all the similar recipes I could find and all contained mayo except one that called for mascarpone.  Now that sounded good, but I didn’t have any on hand.  So I made a few changes and substituted sour cream.  Oh my.  This is a new favorite at our house! 

Ingredients:

2 (8 oz) Packages of cream cheese, softened
1 cup sour cream
1 1/2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1/2 cup chopped pickled jalapeno peppers

Mix up the  ingredientsI never think ahead to take out the cream cheese to soften it.  Instead I soften it slightly in the microwave a few seconds at a time, turning the cheese occasionally until it’s soft enough to mix.  Stir in the sour cream until it is well mixed.  Add the chopped jalapeno peppers and one cup of the cheese and mix until well distributed.  If you like things extra spicy add more jalapenos.  Half a cup proved to be the perfect mix for our family so that everyone could enjoy it.  I purchase pickled jalapenos that are medium in heat.  

Bake popper dipAdd the mixture to a lightly greased 2 quart baking dish and top with the remaining 1/2 cup of cheese.  Bake in a 350 degree oven for 30 minutes. 

Popper dip dig inAnd dig in!  I had a tough time getting my crew to leave enough for me.  And I was the one craving it.  For crying out loud!  🙂

      Hmm I’ve always served it right out of the oven so if baking it there is an option that would be a winner. However this is so good that I even love it leftover cold right out of the fridge, so you can’t really mess it up. Putting it in a crock pot and then just adding cheese about 30 min before serving would work too though the consistency might be slightly different.

    It was a big hit at the Super Bowl Party! Thank You for sharing.
    I added 1/2 chopped raw jalapeno, 2 Tb liquid from the pickled jalapenos and onion straws on top. This dip is good hot and cold!

      Oh I’m so glad you liked it. It’s always a hit here too. Your additions sound delish. I love this spicier too. And yes, hot or cold it’s yummy!

      Your extras sound good! What’s onion straws? French fried onions?

    This sounds wonderful!!! When you say pickled jalapeños, is that the “nacho” style or the “candied” style? I’m guessing “nacho”, but I love both so can imagine either 😋.
    I always like more spice than the rest of my fam, so I usually add a sprinkle of cayenne on my own servings, which does the trick for me and lets my fam enjoy theirs milder.
