Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 head garlic
  • 1 (12 ounce) jar marinated artichoke hearts, drained
  • 8 ounces full-fat sour cream, room temperature
  • 8 ounces full-fat cream cheese, room temperature
  • 12 ounces shredded mozzarella, divided
  • 5 ounces shredded Parmesan
  • Kosher salt
  • fresh cracked pepper

Serve with:

  • sliced French baguette

Instructions

  1. Heat oven to 400 degrees. Slice the head of garlic in half and place it into a piece of tin foil. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with a large pinch of Kosher salt. Wrap foil around garlic, sealing it inside. Bake for 40-45 minutes or until golden brown and soft. Set aside and allow to cool. Turn oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Squeeze cooled garlic into a large bowl along with artichoke hearts, sour cream, cream cheese, half the mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, and a few hearty pinches of salt along with a pinch of pepper. Mix until well combined.
  3. Transfer to a 8×8 baking dish. Spread in an even layer and top with remaining mozzarella.
  4. Bake for 25-30 minutes. Then broil for 1-2 minutes or until the mozzarella on top starts to get dark golden brown.
  5. Garnish with freshly sliced chives and serve with crunchy crostini bread. Enjoy!

Equipment

Notes

    • Drain the artichoke hearts! Whether you’re using marinated or canned artichokes, drain them thoroughly or the dip will be watery.

    • Shred your own cheese! Pre-shredded cheese is coated in cellulose which prevents it from clumping and keeps it from melting easily. Shred your cheese at home for the best texture and flavor.

    • Add a pinch of cayenne pepper! A hint of heat is a great addition to this rich, creamy dip so feel free to add a pinch of cayenne if you like.

    • Serve this artichoke dip with my easy crostini recipe! Perfectly crispy little slices of French baguette are the ideal accompaniment for this artichoke dip.
