Sriracha dip
I can’t think of an easier crowd pleaser than this sriracha cream cheese dip, which might just be my favorite dip ever. It’s insanely simple to make (only 4 ingredients!), but insanely addicting to eat—spicy, creamy, garlicky and perfect with potato chips.

Spicy cream cheese dip
I grew up with two older brothers and a Dad who were/are crazy about football. First downs, touchdowns and field goals were the sounds of our Sundays, even though I inevitably had my nose stuck in a book and didn’t know what any of it meant. While I still can’t distinguish a quarterback from a lineman, I would happily sit through any game as long as I had a bowl of this sriracha cream cheese dip in front of me. The recipe comes from my book, The Food Processor Family Cookbook by way of my good friends Kelley and Amanda.

Garlic sriracha dip
This easy sriracha dip is perfect for parties, barbecues, potlucks, and of course, game days! Trust me when I tell you that it will make any football game a thousand times more interesting (or at least delicious ?).
It comes together in minutes using just garlic, cream cheese, sour cream and sriracha. You can add as much or as little sriracha as you like, depending on how spicy you like it (I’m obsessed with this Vermont Maple Sriracha, which is naturally sweetened and made with natural ingredients, but any brand works).

How to make sriracha cream cheese dip:
- Drop 2 cloves of garlic into a food processor with the blade running and finely chop.
- Add softened cream cheese, sour cream, sriracha and salt.
- Process until smooth. Taste and add additional sriracha if you want it spicier!
- Transfer the dip to a bowl, and garnish with chopped chives, if you wish (it’s also delicious plain). Serve the dip with sturdy potato chips, and watch it disappear!

Tips for making sriracha dip:
- The dip gets made right in the food processor, but you could also mix it by hand as long as you finely grate the garlic.
- Make sure your cream cheese is at room temperature so that it mixes in smoothly without lumps.
- You can add as much or as little sriracha as you like, depending on how spicy you like it! I suggest you go big. ? You can use any brand of sriracha you like (I’m obsessed with this Vermont Maple Sriracha, which is naturally sweetened and made with natural ingredients).
- I often garnish the dip with chives, but it’s totally optional.
- Try the dip as a spread on sandwiches or burgers!

Really good! I didn’t have any chips. So I spread it on low carb tortillas, rolled them, chilled the, then cut in to pieces to serve. Yum.
