Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 slices bacon
- 8 ounces cream cheese
- 0.5 cups sour cream
- 0.25 cups mayonnaise
- 1.5 cups sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
- 0.5 cups Monterey Jack cheese, shredded
- 2 medium fresh jalapenos, finely diced
- 1 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoons onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoons smoked paprika
- 2 stalks green onions, chopped
- 1 tablespoon parsley, chopped (optional garnish)
- 1 package tortilla chips or crackers (for serving)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until they are crispy. Remove the bacon from the skillet and place it on a plate lined with paper towels to drain. Once cooled, crumble the bacon into small pieces and set aside.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise. Stir until smooth and fully combined.
Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, diced jalapenos, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika. Mix well to evenly distribute the ingredients.
Add half of the crumbled bacon to the mixture and stir to incorporate. Reserve the other half for topping later.
Transfer the dip mixture to a 9-inch baking dish or an oven-safe skillet. Spread it out evenly.
Sprinkle the top of the dip with the remaining crumbled bacon and chopped green onions.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the dip is hot and bubbly around the edges.
Remove the dip from the oven and let it cool slightly. If desired, garnish with chopped parsley for a fresh pop of flavor.
Serve the Spicy Jalapeno Bacon Cheese Dip warm with tortilla chips or crackers for dipping.
