Instructions
If baking with topping, preheat oven to 350 F. Spray a loaf pan or large ramekin (4 cups) with cooking spray, set aside.
In a large pan, cook the chopped bacon until crispy.
Transfer cooked bacon to a paper towel lined plate to drain.
Remove all but about 1-2 tablespoon of bacon fat from the pan. You can just eyeball this.
Add the jalapenos and onions to the pan, cook over medium heat until veggies soften and onion is translucent.
Add garlic, cook for one more minute. Add cream cheese to the pot, stirring to melt and combine.
Once the cream cheese is smooth and well incorporated, add the sour cream, mayo, and bacon, stir well to combine.
Stove top method:
Add shredded cheeses, stir well. Continue cooking over medium heat until cheeses are fully melted, and the dip is hot and bubbling.
Transfer to serving dish of choice, and garnish with bacon, sliced jalapenos, and/or green onions, if desired.
Serve immediately, with corn chips and veggies.
Oven method:
Add shredded cheeses to the pot, stir well, and transfer dip to the prepared baking dish.
Mix together the crushed corn chips and Parmesan, scatter evenly over the dip.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until topping is golden and dip is bubbly.
If desired, garnish with bacon, sliced jalapenos, and/or green onions.
Serve immediately, with corn chips and veggies.
