  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of cheese. While cheddar is the classic choice for chili cheese dip, you can also use other types of cheese, such as Monterey Jack, pepper Jack, or queso Oaxaca. Experiment until you find a combination of cheeses that you love.
  • Add some spice to your chili cheese dip with chili peppers or cayenne pepper. If you like your dip spicy, add a teaspoon or two of chili peppers or cayenne pepper. You can also add diced jalapeños for an extra kick.
  • Serve your chili cheese dip with a variety of dippers. Tortilla chips, crackers, and vegetable sticks are all great options. You can also serve your dip with grilled chicken or shrimp.
  • Make your chili cheese dip ahead of time. Chili cheese dip can be made up to 2 days ahead of time. Simply cover it and refrigerate it until you're ready to serve.
