Jalapeño Popper Dip

Spicy, cheesy, creamy deliciousness. Jalapeño Popper Dip is a sure fire way to get an invite back to anyone’s house!

We love jalapeño poppers, but the thought of stuffing each pepper individually seemed daunting to me.  Maybe this is the lazy way out, but it sure is tasty!

Start with 6 large jalapeños, one cup each of sour cream, shredded cheddar, shredded monterey jack and 8 ounces of cream cheese

The jalapeños need to be roasted so I’m going to throw them on a burner until the skin is slightly charred and blistered

You can also blister the peppers on a sheet pan in the oven under the broiler

Cut each pepper in half lengthwise, scrape off the charred skin and the seeds

Dice into small pieces
