Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (15 ounce) can chili (no beans recommended)
- 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or cheese blend)
Instructions
- Combine the canned chili and the softened cream cheese in your slow cooker.
- Stir the mixture well until the cream cheese is fully melted and incorporated into the chili, creating a smooth base.
- Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until it melts completely and the dip is creamy.
- Keep the dip warm on the ‘Keep Warm’ setting for serving. Stir occasionally.
- Serve hot with tortilla chips, crackers, or vegetable sticks for dipping.
Notes
- For a smoother texture, use Velveeta cheese instead of shredded cheddar.
- If you prefer a thicker dip, reduce the amount of chili slightly.
- This recipe works well on the stovetop; combine ingredients in a saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring until smooth.
