Y’all, this is some tasty bacon. :)

In addition to bacon bringing the flavor, this dish is also loaded with some other delicious ingredients.

Can I get three cheers for cream cheese, sour cream, and cheddar cheese?

How to Make Hot Bacon Dip

I also recently added diced pimentos to this dish as I think it brings some beautiful color.

Also, don’t skip the 1/2 teaspoon of cayenne pepper in this warm cheesy bacon dip recipe! It’s just enough cayenne pepper to add a tiny kick of flavor, but it definitely doesn’t overpower the dish.

In fact, I normally go pretty mild on anything spicy since my family doesn’t like overly spicy dishes, and no one has ever noted that this dip is too hot for their taste buds.

    Bless you for avkowledging our Lord and Savior

  3. I used maple bacon instead of the other one. Itโ€™s delicious. Thank you.ย 

  4. Vicki L Butler says:

    I add jalapenos pepper. Very good recipe

  5. Could u make this in a crock pot

  6. This dip was delicious. So easy to put together. The thing that took the longest was the bacon. After that was done it really just took about 10 miniutes from start to finish and then in the oven for about 35 minutes. I added a little more Cayenne because we like a little more kick but it was not to spicy at all. We served it with Tostito’s but sliced red bell peppers, cauliflower, broccoli or crackers would all be great choices. Made this for New Years Eve as a appetizer and everyone was happy. Will definitely make this again and again and agin for years to come. Don’t leave any of the ingredients out!!!!! And, make sure it is hot enough all the way through which is why in my oven I did it for 35 minutes.

  7. I made this without meat. Was very good still.

  8. I have not made this…however I will be trying it. Probably minus the pimentos though…lol
