How to Make Spicy Cheese Dip

  1. Combine cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, and pepper jack cheese in a medium microwave-safe bowl.
  2. Add diced jalapeños (adjust amount to your spice preference), taco seasoning, and a pinch of salt and black pepper.
  3. Microwave on high for 1-minute intervals, stirring well after each interval, until the cheese is melted and smooth (approximately 3-5 minutes total).
  4. Stir in the sour cream until fully combined.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
