Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (15 ounce) can chili (no beans recommended)
- 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
- Combine the canned chili and softened cream cheese in a small slow cooker.
- Stir the mixture until the cream cheese is fully melted and the dip is smooth and combined.
- Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until it melts into the dip.
- Keep the dip warm on the ‘Keep Warm’ setting of the slow cooker until serving.
- Serve this hot cheese dip immediately with tortilla chips, crackers, or vegetables.
Notes
- For a thicker dip, reduce the amount of chili slightly or add an extra half block of cream cheese.
- If you do not have a slow cooker, you can combine the chili and cream cheese in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth. Then, stir in the cheddar cheese.
- This recipe is a great base for queso variations; add diced green chiles or a dash of hot sauce for extra flavor.
