Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup (8 oz) / 226g cream cheese, softened
  • 1 can (14 oz) / 396g artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
  • 1 cup (150 g / 5.3 oz) frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
  • 1 cup (113 g / 4 oz) sharp Cheddar cheese, grated
  • 1/2 cup (50 g / 1.76 oz) Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • For the creamiest texture, use full-fat block cream cheese and shred your own cheddar. Pre-shredded cheeses often contain anti-caking agents that can make the dip slightly grainy.
  • To get a beautiful golden-brown top, transfer the finished dip to an oven-safe dish, top with a little extra Parmesan, and broil for 1-2 minutes before serving.

Method
 

  1. Directions
  2. Ensure your spinach is thoroughly thawed and squeezed of all excess water. This is a crucial step to prevent a watery dip.
  3. In the basin of your slow cooker, combine the softened cream cheese, chopped artichoke hearts, dry spinach, grated Cheddar cheese, Parmesan cheese, and minced garlic.
  4. Stir all the together until they are well combined.
  5. Season generously with salt and pepper.
  6. Cover the slow cooker and cook on HIGH for 2 hours or on LOW for 3-4 hours, stirring halfway through if possible.
  7. Once the dip is hot and bubbly and the cheeses are fully melted, give it one final stir.
  8. Serve warm with your favorite dippers.
  9. Add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce to the mix for a subtle kick of heat.
