How to make Quick Chile Cheese Dip
- First, I find mixing if the
cream cheese is at room temperature much easier. However, don’t fret if you forgot to set it out. You can microwave thecream cheese on medium for a few seconds to warm it. - Next, you can use fresh, frozen, or canned corn. You’ll need to cook fresh and frozen corn. For canned, you can drain the corn.
- Also, drain the green chile peppers.
- Shred pepper jack cheese.
- Finally, mix the
cream cheese , corn, peppers, cheese, and Ranch seasoning mix. If you want to control the salt in this Quick Chile Cheese Dip, here’s my Homemade recipe. Otherwise, use the store-bought packet. - Optional: Add cayenne pepper, hot sauce, or Sriracha sauce if you want a little zing to the dip.
That’s it. Refrigerate the dip until you’re ready to serve it. Serve it as is. You can also heat it in the microwave or oven. It takes 3 to 4 minutes to heat the dip through in the microwave. It will take 20 to 25 minutes in the oven at 350°F.

this is a good dip. that being said, i prefer it without corn
You mention Ranch seasoning in the description but don’t include it in the recipe. Whoops?
It should be Ranch seasoning instead of garlic.
“Finally, mix together the cream cheese, corn, peppers, cheese, and Ranch seasoning mix.”
Uh, what ranch seasoning mix? There’s none in the ingredients list.
It should be Ranch seasoning instead of garlic. I have corrected it.
Sounds delish. But why is recipe named Chile Cheese Wonton Cups? I can’t find any mention of wontons in the blog or the recipe?
Well, that’s crazy! I don’t know why it pulled that title, but I fixed it. Thank you!
I saw the seasoned Ritz crackers and they look like they’re stuffed with something in the picture are they?
It’s the Ritz bits.
What are you referencing where recipe says to add ‘peppers’ with cream cheese, shredded cheese and ranch dressing? Next step says to mix in chilies and corn. Don’t see any peppers in ingredient list. Can’t wait to try this.
Peppers is referring to the green chile peppers.
