  • Oven-safe baking dish (8x8 inch or similar size)

  5. Pour the chili and cream cheese mixture into a small oven-safe baking dish (an 8x8 inch dish or similar size works perfectly). Spread it out evenly.
  6. Generously sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese (or Mexican blend) over the top of the chili mixture, ensuring complete coverage for that classic cheesy crust.

  7. Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the dip is heated through, bubbly around the edges, and the cheese on top is melted and lightly golden brown.
  8. Carefully remove the Hormel Chili Dip from the oven. Let it sit for a minute or two before serving warm with your favorite dippers.

Leftover Hormel Chili Dip can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10-15 minutes or in the microwave.
