Spicy Sriracha Cream Cheese Dip
I can't think of a better crowd pleaser than this spicy sriracha cream cheese dip, which might just be my favorite dip ever. It’s super easy to make (only 4 ingredients!), but insanely addicting—spicy, creamy, garlicky and perfect with potato chips. Serve it as a quick and easy appetizer for your next game day, party, potluck or barbecue.
Sriracha dip ingredients
This sriracha dip 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 love this Organic Sriracha, but any brand works). You can also swap out the sour cream for full-fat Greek yogurt.
The recipe comes from my book, The Food Processor Family Cookbook and is a must-have in my house for football games and parties!
How to make sriracha cream cheese dip:
- In a food processor, chop two garlic cloves.
- Add softened cream cheese, sour cream, sriracha and salt.
- Process until smooth. Taste and add additional sriracha if you want it spicier! If you prefer a thinner texture, add a splash or two of milk.
Tips for making this spicy cream cheese dip:
- The dip gets made right in a food processor, but you could also mix it by hand if 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! You can use any brand of sriracha you like (I love this Organic Sriracha).
- I often garnish the dip with chives, but it's totally optional.
- Try the sriracha dip as a spread on sandwiches or burgers!

I made this dip because I needed an appetizer for a last minute get together, and I had all the ingredients in my fridge. It was good, but I felt it needed something extra to make it great. So I shredded some leftover grilled chicken and a few squirts of lime juice. Delicious!
I love the idea of adding chicken to this dip! Thanks for sharing. 🙂

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.
BRILLIANT!! I love this idea. Thank you for sharing!
