This is an easy dip that you can adjust the heat with more or less peppers! I have served it warmed in the oven and at room temperature- both are yummy!

How To Make jalapeño dip

  • 1
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • 2
    Mix all ingredients in a medium bowl until blended. Put into an oven proof serving dish- I use a one quart dish.
  • 3
    Bake at 350 for 20-45 minutes. The baking time depends on how "gooey" you want the dip. 25 makes it warm and firm, up to 45 makes it very cheesy and gooey. I have also served this room temperature and it tastes great, but no melted cheese.
  • 4
    Serve with tortilla chips, pita chips or bread slices. Store leftovers in aright container in refrigerator.
