Make Cheese Dip in the Crockpot!

When I made my Cheesy Chili Dip I didn’t realize what a HUGE hit it would be – but it was! That’s when I started noticing how often I saw Crockpot Chili Cheese Dip at parties.

I first tasted this dip at a BBQ last summer and was shocked at how easy the host said it was to prepare: just 2 ingredients! And she set the crockpot and walked away and it cooked itself. GENIUS.

2 Ingredient Dip

Cream Cheese: Make sure it’s softened. When it comes to cream cheese you should use a block cream cheese, and use your favorite brand.
Chili: For the chili, use your favorite. My friend who gave me the recipe said a chili without beans is best, but use what you like (or even a vegetarian chili). Just use the brand you prefer!

How to make Cheese Dip in the Crock Pot

Place cream cheese and chili in crock pot. Stir – it’s easiest if you use a hand mixer to mix it all together.
Cook on high or low until melty and hot.

Slow Cooker Tips

Use a small crockpot for this (about a 2 Qt).
I cooked mine on high for about 2 hours but you just want to cook it until the cheese is soft (melted) and the dip can be stirred together. Then turn it to warm.
All slow cookers cook differently – age, brand, use – so make sure you do what your gut tells you about how hot yours gets.

Top with shredded cheddar cheese and let the crock pot cook a bit longer for an even cheesier dip recipe!
To serve this dip just set the crockpot to the warm setting and it’s stay warm throughout the party.
