The Best Pizza Dip Recipe Ever

This pizza dip is creamy and delicious! It tastes like an authentic pepperoni pizza. The basil and other seasonings give it so much flavor you’ll have to keep yourself from eating the whole thing by yourself.

It’s also an easy recipe to prepare. Whenever I am preparing for guests or trying to find something to bring to a party, I also choose something quick and easy when I can. Dips are almost always my go-to.

A few favorites we have are:

• Crack Dip
• BLT Dip
• Cheeseburger Dip

This is a cream cheese pizza dip which makes it even more crave-able. It adds a little tanginess and extra cheesiness that only enhances the flavors. Plus, you can never go wrong with pepperoni, in my opinion. It gets a little crunchy in the oven for some texture. My mouth is watering just thinking about it!

Pizza Dip Recipe Ingredients

Here is everything you need to execute a perfect pizza dip!

• Cream Cheese: It’s much easier to work with when softened. Leave it out at room temperature for about 30 minutes before preparing the dip.
• Dried Oregano

How to Store and Reheat Leftovers

I typically never have any pizza dip left. However, if you do have some leftovers, you can store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It will keep fresh for up to 3 days. 

To reheat, you can pop it in the microwave if you’re all about speed. It messes with the texture slightly but I find mixing it up really well once it’s hot, helps. Otherwise, you can transfer it to a small oven-safe dish. It should only take 5-7 minutes at 350 degrees F.
