After baking top it with melted pepper jelly and serve with more Ritz crackers. This is an easy appetizer and is whipped up in 20 minutes with only about 5 of those being active cooking minutes.
Ingredients:
- 2 8oz blocks of cream cheese, softened
- 2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 green onions, sliced
- 8 Ritz crackers, crushed
- 8 slices of bacon, chopped up
- 1/2 cup of pepper jelly
Directions:
- Preheat over to 350 degrees. In a pie plate combine the first 3 ingredients and smooth it out across the dish. Top with crushed Ritz and chopped bacon. (If you're making this ahead just stop here until you're closer to serving) Bake for 15 minutes. Towards the end of baking put 1/2 cup of pepper jelly into a microwave safe container, microwave for 30 seconds at a time, stirring, until melted. As soon as the dip comes out of the oven evenly spread the melted pepper jelly over the top. Serve with Ritz or your favorite crackers.
