    It's one of my all time favorite dip recipes! This Sausage Cream Cheese Dip is so good and easy to make. Just three ingredients then it's time to wow your guests!

    Sausage Cream Cheese Dip in pot with tortilla chips

    A few years ago my husband's boss brought this dip into work for a special event. He loved it so much he asked me to re-create it for us.

    This may have been the worst decision of my life because oh my, this stuff, I could eat the entire thing by myself. It's so good and easy to make.

    You only need three simple ingredients and you have your next party dip. I actually made this for this year's Super Bowl party.

    How to make Sausage Cream Cheese Dip:

    This dip is so easy to make, and so tasty! All you need to do is cook your sausage, then drain it. Once it's cooked add in your cream cheese and Rotel. Heat those up so the cream cheese is fully melted and everything is nice and hot! Serve with tortilla chips.

    Ingredients:

    • Sausage
    • Rotel
    • Cream Cheese

    This recipe is perfect for the Super Bowl but I serve this recipe at just about any party we have now. Everyone loves it and with three simple ingredients it makes the party prep so easy on me.

    ingredients for sausage cream cheese dip

    Directions:

    Step One - In a large pan cook ground breakfast sausage. Once fully cooked drain the fat.

    Step Two - Cut cream cheese into smaller cubes and add to sausage.
    Step Three - Add Rotel tomatoes and allow to cook on low until cream cheese is melted and creamy. I served with tortilla chips for dipping.

    Should I drain the Rotel:

    On this recipe I did not drain the Ro-tel. It helps make the dip creamy! Of course you can drain if you want a thicker dip but it will not be as easy to dip.

    Can I make this recipe in my slow cooker?

    You know I love using my slow cooker, and of course I have this recipe in my slow cooker as well. Check out my Rotel Dip recipe for the slow cooker recipe!

    Why this recipe is so good!

    This recipe is my go to dip to make for any party and gathering I have or go to. I can bring this to any gathering as well, by making it in my crock pot.

    You may be wondering how can a recipe with only 3 ingredients be so good? Well this dip is so full of flavor. The sausage and Rotel is cooled down with the cream cheese and it is really the best dip ever!

      This is a dip I've been taking with me to parties for 20 years! I started adding a half a brick of Velveeta and an extra can of hatch chili's- To tel really skimps on the chili's in my opinion- We call it crack dip!

      I usually go to our county fair for sausage with peppers and onions. I wasn’t able to go this year and this recipe caught my eye. I made the dip and served it with a side of pan sautéed peppers and onions. It is sooo delicious! Thank you so much for sharing. Keeps me on my keto diet and was so flavorful. I opted for mild Italian sausage because they can be too hot for me so I added some pepper flakes and it gave it the perfect amount of heat. Try it!

        For every pound of sausage I used 2 packages of cream cheese (16oz total) and 2 cans of rotel (20oz total). Hope that helps!

      Do you drain the Rotel?

        Hi! I usually do not drain the Rotel. The juice helps melt the cream cheese and make the dip not so thick. You can reserve it and add it later if you are worried if it will be to thin. Hope you enjoy it and let me know how you like it!!

      Do you drain the fat off the sausage before mixing it with the cream cheese?
