Jalapeno Popper Dip

 

This is a huge hit on Pinterest!  I finally made this one this weekend. 

It was a huge hit with my friends and my husband loved it!

6-8 slices of bacon, diced and cooked crispy ( I used a whole bag of real bacon bits)

2 8-oz packages of cream cheese, softened

1 cup of mayonnaise

4-6 jalapenos, chopped and deseeded. (I did not have fresh jalapenos I used about a cup of sliced jarred jalapenos, chopped)

1 cup of cheddar cheese, shredded

1/2 cup of mozzarella cheese, shredded

1/4 cup diced green onion

Topping:

1 cup of crushed crackers ( I used Ritz)

1/2 cup parmesan cheese

1/2 stick of butter, melted

Preheat oven to 350.

Combine all of the ingredients into a medium bowl.  Stir well.

Transfer to an oven proof dish. The size of the dish depends on how thick the dip is.  The thicker the dip the longer it may need to warm up.  I used this stoneware dish that is round and measures 12 inches across.

 

Combine the topping ingredients and sprinkle all over the top of the dip.

Bake the dip for 20-30 minutes or until bubbly.

 

I'm going to make this for Christmas!
