Boost your dip game with this incredible spicy and creamy Jalapeno Popper Dip! Get all the flavors of the popular appetizer in a quick and easy dip!

The Best Jalapeno Popper Dip

This Jalapeno Popper Dip is probably my all time favorite dip. It’s got all of the flavors of Jalapeno Poppers without the hard work of assembling each individual one. If that wasn’t good enough, it has extra cheese AND bacon in it and who doesn’t like that!

One of my friends introduced this dip to me and she said it’s always the most popular thing she brought to work functions and potlucks. What’s even better is that it’s super quick to make with barely any cleanup. I brought it to a tailgate party recently and it disappeared just about as quickly as I put it on the table.

WHY YOU’LL LOVE THIS DIP:

  • Your game day crowd will love it!
  • It’s super simple using about 8 pantry ingredients.
  • It has bacon it it. That’s really the only thing you need to know!

HOW TO MAKE JALAPENO POPPER DIP

This dip is so easy to make, you’ll never want to waste your time making those individual jalapeno poppers again. Instead of slicing and filling each jalapeno half with the filling, you just mix all of the ingredients together in a bowl and bake it! Here are the ingredients you’ll need for Jalapeno Popper Dip:

  1. jalapeños
  2. green chilies
  3. cream cheese
  4. cheddar cheese
  5. slices bacon
  6. seasoning

Six ingredients equals a super easy appetizer! It is very easy to just throw the ingredients together in an oven safe dish and add some extra cheddar and jalapenos on top to serve with some baguette slices or crackers. I have also poured the warm dip into a ready to eat bread bowl just to shake it up a little bit.

Tips for making Jalapeno Popper Dip

  • Use canned jalapenos to cut down on time,  but I do personally like the roasted jalapeno flavor.
  • Play with the ratio of jalapenos to green chilies to find a spice level you like. This recipe gives you the flavors of the peppers without the heat so be sure to add more if you’re looking for the spice! Try leaving some of the jalapeno seeds in too if you like spicy.
  • Customize – Add more or less bacon or cheddar if that’s your thing.

If you like this Jalapeno Popper Dip, check out these individual Roasted Jalapeño Popper Bites! To make them just mix together these ingredients of the dip, roll out a can of crescent rolls and cut each triangle in half, put some dip in the middle and roll them up. Pop them in the oven and you have another great appetizer to bring to a tailgate or potluck!

Serving Suggestions

The easiest way to serve Jalapeno Popper Dip is to bake it in a casserole dish and serve with crackers or crostini (toasted bread) for dipping. If you’re feeling creative, bake the dip in a bread bowl like I did with my Chili Cheese Dip! Jalapeno Popper Dip goes best with crisp crackers, tortilla chips or toasted baguette slices for dipping.

What to do with Leftovers

Leftover Jalapeno Popper Dip can be stored in the fridge, covered, for 3-4 days. Reheat in the microwave at medium power to keep the cheese from separating, at 30 second intervals until hot. Stir and enjoy.

    If I use a can of diced jalapenos, do I drain off the liquid?
