The Best Hot Dip Recipes

Here is a list of the best hot dip recipes that are delicious with chips, beer bread or any other side item. Serve them as a Super Bowl appetizer or party food and they will be a hit. Perfect for the winter months or year round really. The ultimate comfort foods in my opinion.

I LOVE dips, cold and hot, but when it’s chilly outside and we have people over I gravitate toward the warm ones. I have tried many but here are some of the best hot dip recipes that I’ve ever had. They are perfect if you are hosting a party especially during the winter months or are just craving some comfort food on a weekend. Serve them during football season and they will definitely be a huge hit! (originally published 2/17, affiliate links present)

Best hot dip recipes

From cheese, to cream cheese, to chili and more these hot dips are pretty easy to make which is what I am all about. If you need a dairy free dip we have an option for those too. Try this dairy free buffalo chicken dip so everyone can enjoy some YUM at your next get together.

No expensive ingredients for me, and most are 5 ingredients or less to make. Here are 10 of my favorite warm appetizers.

• Pepperoni pizza dip you really can’t go wrong with. With melted cheese inside and on top it will be gone in a hurry.
