How to Make Bubbling Cauldron Hot Cheese Dip

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Melt cheddar cheese in a medium saucepan over low heat, stirring frequently until smooth and melted.
  3. Remove from heat and stir in the rinsed and drained black beans and salsa. Mix well.
  4. Carefully cut a 1-1/2 inch thick circle from the top of the marble rye bread, creating a bread bowl. Remove the bread from the inside, leaving a sturdy shell.
  5. Cut the removed bread into bite-sized pieces for dipping.
  6. Reserve one pretzel rod. Arrange the remaining pretzel rods on a serving plate to create a “campfire” effect.
  7. Place the bread “cauldron” onto the pretzel campfire.
  8. Fill the bread cauldron with the cheese dip, allowing some to spill over the edges for a more dramatic effect.
  9. Arrange the reserved bread pieces and optional cocktail breads around the cauldron.
  10. Place the reserved pretzel rod into the cheese dip as a spooky “stick”.
  11. Serve immediately. Enjoy your bubbling cauldron of cheesy deliciousness!
