Jalapeno Popper Dip
INGREDIENTS
- Cooking Time: 25 minutes
- Preparation Time: 10 minutes
- 2 - 8oz packages of cream cheese - room temperature
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 cup shredded cheeses (suggestions: cheddar, jack, Mexican blend. I used what I had...cheddar and mozzarella)
- 1/2 cup parmesan cheese
- 1 - 4oz can chopped green chilies
- 1 - 4oz can chopped jalapenos (if you like it hot...add more)
- Topping
- 1 cup panko bread crumbs
- 1/2 cup parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup (half stick) butter, melted
DIRECTIONS
- You can either do this in a food processor....or the old fashioned way (hand mixer and spoon).
- Preheat your oven to 375'F. Lightly grease a 2 quart casserole dish.
- ***If you're using a food processor, just dump it all in (except for the topping ingredients) and process until smooth.
- ***If you're using a hand mixer and spoon (like I did cuz I was too lazy to wash the parts for my food processor)....in a large bowl, cream together the cream cheese, mayonnaise and sour cream with your mixer, until smooth. Stir in the remaining ingredients (except for the topping ingredients) until combined well.
- Spread the dip into your prepared casserole dish.
- In a small bowl, combine the panko and cheese. Add the butter and mix well....making sure everything is "wet". Sprinkle over the dip.
- Bake in your preheated 375' oven for 25 minutes until a little golden brown on top.
- Allow to cool a little before serving. Best when served warm or at room temperature
