Jarlsberg Cheese Dip

Creamy Jarlsberg Cheese Dip

Rich, nutty, and irresistibly melty—perfect for parties or cozy nights in!

Ingredients

(Serves 6–8)

• 2 cups shredded Jarlsberg cheese (about 8 oz)

• 4 oz cream cheese, softened

• ½ cup mayonnaise

• ½ cup sour cream

• 2 tbsp finely chopped green onions (white + light green parts)

• 1 tsp Dijon mustard (or ½ tsp dry mustard)

• ½ tsp garlic powder

• ½ tsp Worcestershire sauce

• Pinch of cayenne pepper (optional, for heat)

• 2 tbsp grated Parmesan (optional, for extra depth)

Instructions

1. Prep: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).

2. Mix: In a bowl, combine Jarlsberg, cream cheese, mayo, sour cream, green onions, Dijon, garlic powder, Worcestershire, and cayenne. Fold until fully blended.

3. Bake: Transfer to a small ovenproof dish. Sprinkle with Parmesan (if using). Bake 20–25 mins until bubbly and golden at the edges.

4. Broil (optional): For a crispier top, broil 1–2 mins at the end.

5. Serve: Garnish with extra green onions. Pair with:

   • Pretzels, baguette slices, or crackers

   • Veggies (bell peppers, carrots, celery)

   • Apple slices (for a sweet contrast)

Tips

• Make ahead: Assemble unbaked dip, cover, and refrigerate up to 1 day. Bake as directed (+5 mins if cold).

• Slow cooker: Mix ingredients, cook on LOW 1–2 hours, stirring occasionally.

• No oven? Microwave in 30-sec intervals, stirring between, until melted.

Why Jarlsberg? Its buttery, slightly sweet flavor melts like a dream—no clumping! 🧀🔥

Great for game day, holidays, or wine nights!
