How to Make the BEST Broccoli Cheese Dip

  • Ingredients you’ll need to make homemade Broccoli Cheese Dip: One pound package of frozen steamable broccoli florets, chive and onion cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, dry Ranch salad dressing mix, shredded sharp cheddar cheese, grated Parmesan cheese and green onions.
  • Kitchen tools you’ll need: 1 1/2 – 2 quart baking dish OR 9×9 inch baking pan, cheese grater, hand mixer, sharp knife and chopping board, measuring cups and spoons.
  • I prefer using broccoli florets for this recipe as they’re more tender and chop beautifully making it easier to scoop and dip. If you prefer using broccoli cuts you can but I highly recommend using steamable broccoli florets and chopping them by hand.
  • If you’d like to add a few dashes of hot sauce to the dip mixture for spice, you can.
  • Serve this broccoli dip with pita chips, crackers, potato chips or waffle fries for dipping.
  • You can fully assemble this dish and chill it overnight. Allow it to stand on the counter for 15 minutes or so prior to baking and increase the baking time, if needed.
  • Store baked Broccoli Cheese Dip chilled in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat in single servings in the microwave.
