Ingredients

  • 14 oz artichoke bottoms canned
  • 4-5 green onions
  • 16 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 tsp dijon mustard
  • 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 garlic cloves pressed
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 lb. real crab meat not imitation crab
  • 1 cup fontina cheese shredded + more for the top
  • 1 cup Monterey Jack cheese shredded + more for the top
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese shredded + more for the top

Instructions

  • Chop the artichoke bottoms into small pieces. Then slice the green onion.
  • In a bowl, combine room-temperature cream cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream, and Dijon mustard with an electric hand mixer.
  • Now mix in the Worcestershire sauce, pressed garlic, black pepper, and salt.
  • Then add in the chopped artichoke bottoms, green onion, and crab meat. Mix just to combine.
    Steps to make Crab Artichoke Dip: combine the sour ream, mayonnaise and cream cheese with an electric hand mixer, then add the salt, pepper, and garlic, and finally the crab meat, artichokes, and green onion.
  • Mix in 1 cup shredded fontina, 1 cup Monterey Jack, and 1 cup cheddar cheese. Then transfer to an oven-safe baking dish coated with nonstick spray or butter. I used an 11-inch oval casserole dish.
  • Shred a little extra of each cheese and sprinkle over the top of the crab dip. Add as much or as little cheese on top as you wish.
  • Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 20 minutes.
    Steps to make Crab Artichoke Dip: add in the monterey jack, fontina, and cheddar cheeses, mix thoroughly, and bake.

Notes

  • Slice the artichoke small- Since you will likely be eating this with chips, you don't want the artichoke pieces too big for the chip to hold.
  • Soften the cream cheese- Cream cheese will blend better if it's been softened to room temperature. This way you avoid any clumps in your dip.
  • Mix thoroughly- You really want to get a good mix of everything throughout the dip, so make sure to combine all the ingredients well.
  • Add cheese on top- Make sure to add some cheese on top of the Crab Artichoke Dip so you get a gooey, golden brown layer on top.
