Instructions

Preheat Oven

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Prepare Artichokes

Drain the can of artichoke hearts and chop them into small pieces.

Pro tip: Use a clean kitchen towel to pat the artichokes dry to remove excess moisture.

Mix Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream, Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Stir until well combined.

Pro tip: Ensure the cream cheese is fully softened for easier mixing.

Add Artichokes

Fold the chopped artichokes into the cheese mixture until evenly distributed.

Pro tip: Be gentle to keep the artichokes from breaking apart too much.

Transfer to Baking Dish

Spoon the mixture into a medium-sized baking dish, spreading it out evenly.

Pro tip: A 9-inch (23 cm) pie dish works well for this recipe.

Bake the Dip

Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the dip is bubbling.

Pro tip: For extra browning, broil for an additional 2 minutes, watching closely.

Serving Suggestions

Serve this hot artichoke dip with slices of crusty bread, crackers, or fresh veggies for a delightful appetizer.

Reheat in the oven until warmed through before serving again.
