I’m NOT exaggerating when I say this PIZZA DIP is insanely GOOD!! You have to try it!🍕

I think the key is to season the cream cheese well and use a toasted baguette or something sturdy like a pita chip to dip. Also, it’d be fun to make a pepperoni dip and then also make one with a few more favorite pizza toppings for a different variation!

    YUM!

  2. jennifer

    Yummy, I love this and I do mine in an iron skillet. You are right about needing a sturdy bread to serve it on because when then cheese cools it gets harder to dip. I used pretzel chips and ritz crackers but baguettes probably would be better… Thanks Lina!

    • Lina (Hip's Modern Martha)

      Great idea on the skillet!

  3. mindy

    I forgot about this dip. Used to make it years ago. SOOOO good!!! Everyone loves it. Thanks for the reminder πŸ™‚

    • Lina (Hip's Modern Martha)

      Sure!

  4. LBB

  6. Raedev

    Man this looks good *drool*

    • Lina (Hip's Modern Martha)

      Oh thanks Raedev!

  7. Sara

    We have always used plain wheat thins to dip with!! SOOO GOOD!!

  8. Meghan

    Anyone have any other types of ideas to use besides the bread to dip with?

    • rebecca

      maybe breadsticks, pretzel crisps, pita chips, bagel chips, pretzel rods.
      someone else suggested Wheat Thins.
      i think Triscuits or bagel chips would be delicious with this!

      • Grey

        mini bagels, celery

        • Brenda

          We use Frito’s Scoops. I also use mini salad pepperonis in mine.

          • Lina (Hip's Modern Martha)

            Great idea!

    • Ihearthip

      Bacon πŸ™‚
      Pita chips
      Thick cut bell pepper slices
      Broccoli
      Cauliflower
      Halved cheese biscuits
      Strips of steak

    • Cindy C

      It’s delicious with Ritz crackers!

    • Jac.674

      I love the veggie ideas: broccoli, carrot sticks, cauliflower, celery sticks, bell pepper slices

      Has anyone tried using these, and did they hold up to the dip?

  9. Renee

    This dip also work well with those tiny pepperonis that are almost dime size πŸ˜‹

    • Daphne Murray

      We use the mini pepperonis too. I also make mine in a small crock pot with all ingredients mixed together. After it’s thoroughly mixed together, I just keep it on warm throughout the party.

      • Lina (Hip's Modern Martha)

        Great Idea!

      • Grey

        yeah, my store was sold out too. I was thinking of just quartering the large peperonis and mixing them in with the cream cheese.

        • Lina (Hip's Modern Martha)

          Yes! Great idea πŸ‘

      • Kim

        Can you share the crockpot directions?

    • Lina (Hip's Modern Martha)

      Yes!!! I was looking for them actually! My store was out.

  10. Tammy

    Low carb, too…Yay! Thanks a bunch…:)

  11. Megan

    I use French bread baked into those pampered chef bread tubes!

  12. Caroline

    We use the large dipping Fritos. Yum!

  13. Allison πŸ’™

    Frugalme37@yahoo.com

  15. Nina

    Yes this is screaming “skillet!” My goodness!

  16. Briana Macy

    We always use nacho cheese Doritos. Can’t have too much cheese, right? πŸ™‚

  17. Laura

    This looks amazing- and I already have everything!! So totally doing this for the game πŸ˜€

    • Lina (Hip's Modern Martha)

      Enjoy Laura! πŸ•πŸˆ

  18. momof4

    Can you put it in the crockpot?

    • Laura

      I haven’t made this before, but I’m planning to mix the ingredients together (because my son would freak out and refuse to eat it if he saw cream cheese), put it in the crock pot, and keep it on warm. I’m hoping that by doing this the cheese won’t get too cool and harden, or too hot and burn onto the crock.

  19. momof4

    I’ve made it twice now in the crockpot. It’s soooo good! Seemed a little thick after awhile so just added a little more pizza sauce.

  20. RDHarris

    This is the dip is awesome. At gatherings, it is always the first empty dish! I have always served it with nacho/tortilla chips!

    • Lina D

      Thanks for sharing! So glad πŸ˜€

  21. Kelli Toikka

    Love this pizza dip!! We use Toasteds buttery crackers. We will have to try with the frito big scoop next time.
