You’ll memorize this recipe, because it will be a go-to favorite appetizer for any fall or winter gathering. Simple to throw together and ready to serve in around 30 minutes. Plus, the cheesy, creamy flavor, with plenty of spicy kick, will have everyone clamoring for the recipe! I’ve even had people who don’t like spicy food flip for this yummy dip!
