Hot Chipotle Onion Cheese Dip

Hot Chipotle Onion Cheese Dip

Four cheeses–count ’em–and a little kick from chipotle make this hot cheese dip unbelievably delicious.

Now here’s a terrific little party dip!

It’s got a nice oniony flavor and it’s packed with cheese too. The little extra here is that it gets it’s heat and a taste kick from chipotles.

Delicious smoky flavor!

Since I love the nice smoky flavor of chipotles, I try to substitute them when I can for more traditional jalapenos.

Mind you, the original recipe for this didn’t have any heat or peppers.  It came on a recipe card that came with a baker I got from Temp-Tations by Tara.  But I thought the flavor would be improved with the chipotles and I also changed cheeses and amounts of cheese.  Used mayo instead of what Tara had in her recipe and used slightly more.

Packed with 4 cheeses!

This will make a big hit at your next party.  Serve it right beside my Hot Jalapeno & Chili Popper Dip!
