Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz cream cheese
- 1 cup cocktail sauce
- 1 lb small cooked shrimp
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 tbsp green onions
- 1 package crackers or chips (for serving)
Instructions
Place the cream cheese in a mixing bowl and let it sit at room temperature for about 10-15 minutes to soften.
Use a spatula to spread the cream cheese evenly onto a serving plate or shallow dish, creating a smooth base for the dip.
Pour the cocktail sauce on top of the cream cheese layer and use the back of a spoon to spread it evenly.
Chop the shrimp into smaller, bite-sized pieces if desired, then layer the shrimp uniformly over the cocktail sauce.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly on top of the shrimp layer.
Finely chop the green onions and sprinkle them over the top as garnish for freshness and a pop of color.
Serve immediately with crackers or chips for dipping, or refrigerate until ready to serve.
