Instructions
Blend the Base: In a food processor, combine 8 oz. of softened and cubed cream cheese, 8 oz. of sour cream, 14 oz. of sliced jalapeno peppers along with the juice from the jar, 2 fresh avocados (peeled and pitted), a bunch of fresh cilantro leaves, 1 tbsp of garlic powder, the juice of 1 lime, and salt and pepper to taste. Blend everything on high for about 10 seconds.
Scrape and Smooth: After the initial blend, use a spatula to scrape down the sides of the bowl. Then, process the mixture for another 10 seconds or until you achieve a smooth and creamy dip consistency that you're happy with. Adding more avocado thickens the dip, and a little heavy whipping cream will thin it.
Serve and Enjoy: Your creamy avocado jalapeno dip is ready to be enjoyed! Serve it immediately with homemade tortilla chips and fresh, sliced raw vegetables for dipping.
Notes
Storing Leftover Avocado Jalapeno Dip
Airtight Container: Move the dip into an airtight container.
Smooth the Surface: Flatten the top with a spoon or spatula to reduce air exposure.
Plastic Wrap Protection: Lay plastic wrap directly on the dip's surface, covering it entirely.
Refrigerate Promptly: Store the container in the fridge immediately.
Enjoy Soon: For the best taste, consume within 2-3 days.
Variations
Either siracha hot sauce, cayenne pepper, or serrano peppers can add more heat to the dish.
Reduce the jalapenos and mix in some mayonnaise or Greek yogurt for a milder flavor.
Mix avocado jalapeno dip and a can of your preferred salsa to make avocado salsa.
Alter the consistency as desired by adding an additional avocado to the dip to make it thicker or a small amount of heavy whipping cream to make it thinner.
