Dip recipes are always a hit and this easy Chili Cheese Dip recipe could not get any easier! If you can toss together a few ingredients, you can make this easy appetizer.

The dip is so creamy and delicious with the perfect amount of heat from the jalapenos. However, you can omit these all together if you want. Or you can add extra like us. 🙂

Make this dip when you need something easy but delicious for a party. It is one of my go to recipes to take to tail gates, parties and more. It is always a hit and everyone raves about it.

Ingredients for chili cream cheese dip:

• 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
• 2 can (15 oz each) chili without beans
• 2 teaspoons taco seasoning
• 1 garlic clove, minced
• 1 package (8 oz) Mexican blend cheese, shredded
• Serving
• Corn Chips
• Tortilla Chips
• Tomatoes
• Avocado
• Jalapenos
• Cilantro
• Green onions

 

How to make chili cheese dip:

Go ahead and preheat your oven to 350 degrees.

In a medium bowl, soften cream cheese until smooth.  Add chili, taco seasoning, garlic and cheese.

Stir until well combined. Transfer to microwave safe bowl or baking dish. You can make this in a pie plate, ramekin or baking dish.

Now it is time to bake! Place in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until bubbling.

If you prefer to microwave this dip, cook for 5 minutes or until bubbling.

If you prefer to slow cook it, try our Crock Pot Chili Cheese Dip.

Stir before serving. Add toppings and serve with chips.

We like to add jalapenos on top and serve with tortilla chips. I think it would also be delicious with cut up veggies such as celery and carrots if you are trying to reduce the carbs.

More ideas to try with chili cheese dip:

You can also serve with corn chips if you prefer instead of tortilla chips.  I try to always offer veggie options as well.  We like bell peppers, carrots and cucumbers.

Just use what you prefer! I like to put extra jalapeno peppers on mine so I always have an extra bowl of those by the dip.

If you have some that are not fond of the jalapeno peppers, just serve them all on the side. That is a great option if you don’t know what the others might prefer.

Sometimes, I will also add extra cheese on top.  Shredded pepper jack cheese is delicious. You can add it in the mixture or sprinkle it on top. Sharp cheddar is another tasty option.

Green onion and hot sauce are delicious options too.

Hormel chili cheese dip is the best appetizer or snack idea!

There are so many delicious ingredients in this dip and it is one of our favorite party appetizers. If you love comfort food, this is a must try.

It is so versatile and can be baked or put in the microwave. You can also use a slow cooker if you prefer.

Another idea is to make homemade chili with ground beef if you prefer to not use store bought chili. Both are great in this recipe so just do what is best for you!

It is one of our favorite easy recipes and chili cheese dip never disappoints. Try it on Game Day, birthday parties, holidays and more.

You might even want to double the recipe because it is so good and everyone goes crazy over it. It really isn’t any more trouble to make more so I often double the recipe for parties.
