WARM BLACK-AND-BLUE CHEESE DIP



Warm Black-and-Blue Cheese Dip image

A snack-happy crowd will bug out over this decadent Halloween appetizer, especially once they taste how the leggy little garnishes make its rich flavors pop.

Provided by Riley Wofford

Categories     Food & Cooking     Appetizers

Time 40m

Yield Serves 6 to 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
3 ounces Danish blue cheese, crumbled (3/4 cup)
2 shallots, chopped
1 clove garlic, chopped
1/3 cup heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
Medjool dates, raisins, pepitas, and sliced or slivered almonds, for decorating
Crackers and crudités, such as red endives, radishes, and purple baby carrots, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325°F. Place both cheeses, shallots, garlic, cream, Worcestershire, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in the bowl of a food processor; blend until smooth, scraping down bowl as needed.
  • Transfer to an 8-inch gratin dish or other shallow baking dish. Bake until heated through and lightly browned in places, 20 to 25 minutes (if heated through but not browned, broil 30 to 60 seconds).
  • Decorate with edible insects (use dates and raisins for bodies, and pepitas and almonds for appendages), and serve warm, with crackers and crudités.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use a good quality blue cheese. I recommend a creamy and tangy variety, such as Gorgonzola or Roquefort.
  • If you don't have any bacon on hand, you can substitute cooked ground beef or sausage.
  • To make the dip ahead of time, simply prepare it up to the point of baking. Then, cover and refrigerate for up to 3 days. When you're ready to serve, simply bake the dip according to the recipe instructions.
  • Serve the dip with a variety of dippers, such as crackers, bread, or vegetables.

Conclusion:

This warm blue cheese dip is the perfect appetizer for any party or gathering. It's creamy, tangy, and packed with flavor. Plus, it's incredibly easy to make. Simply combine a few simple ingredients in a bowl and bake until heated through. Serve with a variety of dippers, such as crackers, bread, or vegetables, and enjoy!
