Tasty Tuesday Jalapeño Popper Dip

I spotted this recipe somewhere. Facebook, probably. Anyway. I'm not taking credit for it, nor have I had the chance to make it yet, but as much as I adore jalapeño poppers, I'm thinking this will be a favorite for many years to come! 


Jalapeño Popper Dip

6-8 slices of bacon, diced and cooked crispy
2 8-oz packages of cream cheese, soft
1 cup of mayonnaise
4-6 jalapeno's, chopped and de-seeded. The seeds will make it fiery hot.
1 cup of cheddar cheese, shredded
1/2 cup of mozzarella cheese, shredded
1/4 cup diced green onion

Topping:

1 cup of crushed crackers ( I used Ritz)
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
1/2 stick of butter, melted


Preheat oven to 350.
Combine all of the ingredients into a medium bowl. Stir well.
Transfer to an oven proof dish. The size of the dish depends on how thick the dip is. The thicker the dip the longer it may need to warm up. I used this stoneware dish that is round and measures 12 inches across. My dip is usually about an inch thick.
Combine the topping ingredients and sprinkle all over the top of the dip.

Bake the dip for 20-30 minutes or until bubbly and enjoy with the hot tamale of your choice!
