This is my own variation on the classic spinach artichoke dip. I could eat this stuff with a spoon! Hubby hates spinach, but he gives it a thumbs up! Perfect for St. Patty's day.

How To Make t's hot spinach artichoke dip

Step 1

*NOTE: To roast garlic cut the top off of 1 bulb, place on a square of aluminum foil, drizzle with a little olive oil and sprinkle with a little salt and pepper. Tightly wrap garlic bulb in the foil; bake at 425 degrees F for 45 minutes or until garlic is very soft.

Step 2

Gather and prep all ingredients. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Step 3

Use butter, or butter flavored cooking oil spray, to grease an 8"x8" baking dish.
Step 4

By hand or with hand mixer, in an average size mixing bowl, beat cream cheese and garlic until smooth and well blended; beat in mayonnaise, then beat in sour cream, salt and pepper until fairly smooth.
Step 5

(If using mixer, now is the time to clean off beaters and switch to a sturdy spoon.)
Step 6

Mixing well after each addition, add parmesan cheese, 1/2 cup of the mozzarella cheese, spinach and artichokes.
Step 7

Spoon mixture into prepared dish and smooth it out. Sprinkle remaining mozzarella evenly over top.
Step 8

Bake at 375 degrees F for 1/2 hour, until cheese is melted and is brown and bubbly around the edges.
Step 9

Serve hot with assorted sturdy chips, crackers, veggies etc... Cover and refrigerate leftovers. May reheat.
