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! (affiliate links present)

Hot Dip Recipes for Chips

I mean you don’t have to wait until the big game day to make one or all of these. We love easy dip recipes during Easter, Thanksgiving and Christmas get togethers too. What we look forward to is snacking all day long, not just the main meal y’all.

What should you serve with hot dips?

Of course all of these need something to scoop them up with and our favorite bases are:

  1. 3 ingredient beer bread cut into bite size pieces is our fave
  2. refrigerated biscuit pull apart bread is super easy to make
  3. Potato and/or tortilla chips are a given
  4. Instant Pot beer bread makes it super moist
  5. Pita chips
  6. Bagel chips
  7. Savory monkey bread you should try to make too
  8. Baguette cut in small slices is an easy one

Best Super Bowl Dips

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 starting with shrimp rotel dip and then…..

Go on with our Baked Buffalo Chicken Dip if you need something to use up your leftover chicken. Can make as spicy or mild as you’d like.

Pepperoni pizza dip you really can’t go wrong with. With melted cheese inside and on top it will be gone in a hurry. We love spinach and artichoke dip with toasted baguettes You can serve this cheesy dip we call beer cheese dip served warm or cold as well. Pressure cooker crack chicken dip is killer using rotisserie chicken, leftovers or fresh

You can always adjust the heat to any of these with some roasted jalapenos diced or leave it out for mild. Oh but that is not all my friends, we have many more you should try on a rotation. Want to make it and serve it right inside your slow cooker?

with Few Ingredients

If you want to use all canned and packaged ingredients with some meat, or without, you should go with our Velveeta sausage dip Rotel recipe here. You can easily make it as spicy as you want or mild to your liking. It goes with all sorts of things to scoop it up which makes things easier at a party.

Baked vidalia parmesan dip because onions rock Cheesy meatball skillet dip is oh my gosh good Taco dip with ground beef is kinda like enchilada dip and can be served as a hot dip or even as a dinner like a taco salad with some lettuce underneath

Layered dips like this one are fun. You normally think of a classic bean dip with the guacamole and sour cream in layer upon layer but there are many more you can create.

Taco Dip with Ground Beef

How do You Keep Hot Dips Hot?

Your best bet is to buy a few of those small Crockpots that are meant for dips. Plug them in on your bar with other foods and stir every so often when you pass by. You can keep it on the warm setting for a few hours this way which makes things easy for you.

Baked in your oven you should try our queso dip with meat. Use ground beef or sausage precooked in there to make it a hearty dish. Slow cooker creamy onion dip is great if you love your crockpot like I do Corn off the cob dip, yes this is a thing. Make the same way as an artichoke dip with a different vegetable inside. Roasted cauliflower dip, one of my favorite veggies

Hot corn and green chile dip

How do you keep cheese-based appetizers warm during a party?

If you don’t have a small slow cooker handy there are other options you can use. Electric warming trays provide a flat surface that keeps multiple dishes warm. Place your appetizers on the tray to maintain their temperature. You can wrap dishes in aluminum foil and then cover them with towels to retain heat for a shorter period.

Chicken parmesan dip is excellent with corn dip made the same way without the meat. Hot crawfish cheese dip is a seafood lovers delight. Jalapeno hot popper dip that can be made as an Instant Pot dip too. One of our favorites is our creamy chili cheese dip that is easy to throw together.

Which ones are your favorites. Have you made something like a homemade goat cheese dip you can share with us that’s not on this list?

Now let’s talk about a few cold ones like our bang bang shrimp sauce, fry sauce and this mustard pretzel dip. I guess you could make the last one heated up too.
