Best 5 Cheesy Spider Dip Recipes

CHEESY CORN DIP

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the corn and cook, turning occasionally, until bright yellow all over and charred in spots. Alternatively, you can cook the corn on the grill. When the corn is cool enough to handle, cut the kernels off the cobs and let them cool completely.
• Meanwhile, combine the cream cheese with the sour cream, mayonnaise, 3/4 cup of the feta, the jalapeño, scallion, cumin, the 1/2 teaspoon chili powder and chopped cilantro in a large bowl. Fold the corn kernels into the dip. Season with salt and pepper. Garnish with the remaining feta, cilantro leaves and chili powder. Serve with blue corn tortilla chips.

BEST CHEESE DIP

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Crumble sausage and ground beef into the skillet; add the onion. Cook and stir the beef mixture until the meat is crumbly, evenly browned, and no longer pink, about 10 minutes. Drain and discard any excess grease. Pour into a slow cooker.
• Layer cheese food cubes atop meat mixture.
• Blend diced tomatoes with green chile peppers in a blender until smooth; pour over the cheese cubes along with the cream of mushroom soup. Stir the mixture.
• Cook on High, stirring occasionally until the cheese is completely melted, about 90 minutes.

SUPER CHEESY SPICY CHICKEN DIP

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the onions, scallion whites, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, shred the Cheddar on the large holes of a box grater. Cut the mozzarella into 1/4-inch to 1/2-inch cubes and set both cheeses aside.
• Once the onions have softened, add the chipotle chiles and adobo sauce to the saucepan and stir until the onions are evenly coated and the adobo sauce is heated through, about 1 minute. Add the milk and stir, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the saucepan. Add the hot sauce, cream cheese, Cheddar and mozzarella and cook, stirring continuously, until all the cheese has melted and the hot sauce has thoroughly combined, about 4 minutes. Gently fold in the chicken.
• Transfer the dip to a heatproof serving bowl and top with the reserved scallion greens and the crispy fried onions. Serve warm with tortilla chips.

EASY CHEESE DIP

Steps:

• Mix cream cheese and sour cream together in a microwave-safe bowl; heat in microwave until softened and easy to stir, about 30 seconds.
• Stir Cheddar cheese into cream cheese mixture and heat in microwave until dip is smooth, 30 to 40 seconds. Stir. Heat in microwave for another 10 seconds if needed.

SPIDER'S NEST DIP

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix cream cheese and 1/2 packet of taco seasoning with 1 cup of the sour cream (hold the rest of the sour cream to decorate). Set mixture aside.
• Spread a thin layer of refried beans in the bottom of a microwaveable serving dish. Add a layer of shredded cheese. Heat dish in microwave for 1 minute, until cheese is slightly melted.
• Drain the salsa and layer it over the cheese. Drain the olives and layer over the salsa. Add a layer of the sour cream mixture. Add a layer of guacamole.
• To decorate the top, spoon a medium sized dollop of sour cream in the center. This is the spider's "nest."
• Spoon the rest of the sour cream into an air-tight bag. Cut a very small piece out of 1 of the bottom corners of the bag and, starting at the outer edge of the dip, pipe a thin circle around the perimeter. Create another circle half way between the perimeter circle and the center dollop, creating 3 circles.
• Using a knife blade, toothpick or skewer, drag a thin line of the sour cream from the "nest" outward toward the edge of the dish. Continue making lines all around the "nest" to complete the spider web design. Position whole black beans onto the sour cream "web."
• Embellish with plastic decorative spiders. Serve with a bowl of blue tortilla chips, and watch your guests scurry to get a bite!
