Broccoli Cheese Dip is a warm and cheesy dip with lots of mozzarella and cheddar cheese and a buttery cracker crumb topping. It tastes so good with Frito chips or on toasted baguette as an appetizer.
Does it get any better than broccoli and cheese? I think not.
This Broccoli Cheese Dip is an unbelievably delicious party food. The broccoli gets cut up into very small pieces so there’s no need to cook it first and it gets wonderfully coated in creamy, cheesy goodness.
Creamy Base
A combination of cream cheese, mayonnaise, and sour cream makes an ultra creamy based for this dip.
Seasonings
For seasoning, I add garlic powder, onion powder, a little Cajun seasoning, and a few red pepper flakes. The latter two make it a little spicy. If you don’t want it spicy, I suggest you leave one or the other out.
Make Ahead
This warm and cheesy dip is perfect for parties. Get it all mixed ahead of time and pop it in the oven before your party begins. It only takes 25 minutes to bake and then you are in cheesy heaven!
Variations and Additions
- Add caramelized onion for some onion flavor.
- Add some cooked and crumbled bacon for a little salty, smokey flavor.
- Ad a finely diced jalapeno for a little more heat.

Thank you for this recipe. I was out of spinach and needed an alternative to bring to a party. Iโm so glad I found your recipe! Delicious!
I chopped up broccoli, still not cooked thoroughly. Cooked an additional 5 minutes, still not quite cooked all the way through.
Fantastic recipe. I decided to go with a more Italian theme, which requires only minor adjustment. Use 2 cups mozz, no cheddar and replace the Creole with Italian seasoning. Also added 2 tablespoons of ranch dressing while mixing. My new favorite
