Don’t you just love appetizer dips as a snack or when guests come over?

My favourites include White Bean Hummus – with homemade crisp pita chips, and this BEST Buffalo Chicken Dip ever.

Yet I think my Dill Pickle Dip will be a hit with anyone who loves pickles.

When making non-dip appetizers, on occasion I make Stuffed JalapeƱo Peppers.

Sometimes I add a twist to the classic appetizer recipe, and make Bacon Wrapped Jalapeno Poppers.

While the kids can only take so much because of the spice – I have found it’s always a hit with the adults in a gathering.

Yet appetizer party dips are where it’s at when there is a gathering, so serving jalapeno peppers in dip form only seems fitting. Am I right?

Ingredients Required

The following are the simple ingredients to make this easy JalapeƱo Popper Dip recipe:

  • softened cream cheese
  • mayonnaise
  • Mexican blend shredded cheese, sharp cheddar cheese, or mozzarella cheese
  • Parmesan cheese
  • green chilies
  • jalapeƱos
  • Panko breadcrumbs
  • butter
  • salt and pepper

I prefer to use cream cheese for this recipe, while some call for sour cream or greek yogurt.

It makes the dip thicker, and creamier than the alternative. Plus, a cheesy dip is a crowd pleaser.

How to Make Jalapeno Popper Dip

To Make: In a large bowl mix the cream cheese, using a hand mixer.

Add the cup mayonnaise, two kinds of cheese, green chilies, and jalapeƱos.

Add salt and pepper to taste. Mix until well combined.

Spread the cream cheese mixture into your pie pan or casserole dish.

In a medium bowl combine your bread crumbs, reserved Parmesan, and melted butter.

Sprinkle bread crumb mixture over top of your cheese mixture and bake until golden brown on top and you got some crispy panko.

When done, serve right in the baking dish.

It’ll have a nice and crisp crunchy topping. You can garnish with green onions, green chilies, or fresh jalapenos.

  2. This dip is sooo good!! I added chopped sweet onion. I’m thinking it would be a good base for a Mac n cheese šŸ˜‚ thank you for the recipe!!

    1. Hello. Yes, you can freeze this jalapeno popper dip recipe! Freeze before you bake it, and allow to thaw in the fridge before baking.

    1. Absolutely! Just refrigerate overnight but your bake time might have to be increased if it’s cold.

    1. Either would do, yet I usually have container on hand and not fresh – and I’m all about less trips to the store! šŸ™‚
