Ingredients to make jalapeno popper dip recipe on a metal sheet pan
  • Cream Cheese – softened to room temperature
  • Sour Cream – you can also substitute with Greek yogurt
  • Cheddar Cheese – I love to use sharp cheddar cheese in this recipe
  • Jalapeno Peppers – Deseed and dice your jalapenos
  • Bacon – The crispy, diced bacon is optional but highly recommended
  • Stone House Seasoning – my house blend (my last name is Stone!) of seasoning that I use in so many recipes. If you don’t already have it on hand, combine 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper, and 1/4 granulated garlic.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Add the softened cream cheese and sour cream to a mixing bowl and mix until well combined.
