I used thick cut hickory smoked bacon – it’s perfect for this dip! The smoky bacon pairs so well with this jalapeno dip! How to make jalapeno popper dip: Cook the bacon in a deep skillet until crispy. Drain well. In a large mixing bowl, add cream cheese, mayo, sour cream, jalapenos, sriracha, shredded cheddar cheese, and bacon. Beat with a hand mixer until the dip is mixed well. Spread dip into a baking dish and top with Parmesan cheese and reserved bacon. Bake until hot and bubbly. Other party foods that go well with this dip: An assortment of Christmas cookies, like Maraschino Cherry Cookies or Ginger Snaps Veggie tray with cut up broccoli, cauliflower, baby carrots, celery, etc. Can this recipe be made ahead of time? Absolutely! Just before the baking step, cover with foil and refrigerate overnight if needed. Then bake as stated in the directions about 45 minutes before guests are set to arrive. You may need to increase baking time an additional 5 – 10 minutes to account for the chill from the refrigeration. Can jalapeno popper dip be frozen? It’s not recommended to freeze this dip because it will change the texture of the cream cheese. It can be made up ahead of time and stored in the fridge for up to 3 days if needed.
