- 8 oz Cream cheese (Makes dip creamy.)
- 1 cup Sour cream (Adds tanginess.)
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese (For sharp flavor.)
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese (For a stretchy melt.)
- 1 cup Shredded Monterey Jack cheese (For creaminess.)
- 1/2 cup Grated Parmesan cheese (Adds salty depth.)
- 1 tsp Garlic powder (Or use minced garlic.)
- 1 tsp Onion powder (Optional but recommended.)
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 pinch Black pepper
- 1/2 cup Diced jalapenos (Optional for heat.)
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F.
- Brown the sausage in a skillet over medium heat, then drain well.
- In a bowl, mix cream cheese and sour cream until smooth.
- Stir in the cooked sausage, garlic powder, and all cheeses (save a little cheese for the top).
Baking
- Spoon the mixture into a baking dish and sprinkle the remaining cheese on top.
- Bake until hot and bubbly, about 20-25 minutes.
- Let it rest for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Notes
For best results, shred your own cheese instead of using pre-shredded. Also, you can prepare the dip in advance and refrigerate before baking. Adjust the heat with your choice of sausage and optional ingredients.
