Artichoke Dip Recipe

We are all about the dips at my house! Our Christmas Eve dinner tradition is preparing a spread of appetizers and dips to munch on all evening while we watch movies and hang out. All in all it is a wonderful night and our favorite way to eat. And this Artichoke Roasted Garlic Dip is a regular on our menu and always a crowd pleaser!
 
My family does not shy away from garlic. We are the opposite of vampires. I think we may even be immune to garlic. I’m pretty sure there is no such thing as too much garlic. Just to prove it I have added a boat load of garlic to many recipes: Lemon Garlic Pasta, Mushroom and Roasted Garlic Quinoa and 40 Clove Garlic Chicken Dip. I have even flirted with the idea of making a roasted garlic ice cream . . . I stopped myself. lol
 
Like I said, can you ever have too much garlic!?!?!

Artichoke and Roasted Garlic Dip

Yield: 4
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 25 minutes

This is the perfect appetizer recipe for your upcoming holiday gatherings.  This dip is creamy and overflowing with flavor.  It is ooey-gooey cheesy goodness and extremely addictive.  This is not your ordinary artichoke dip, it is bursting with pungent roasted garlic and melty cheese.

Ingredients

  • 2 heads of Roasted Garlic*
  • 6 oz Frozen Artichoke Hearts
  • 4 oz Cream Cheese
  • 1/2 cup Plain Greek Yogurt
  • 1/4 cup Mayonnaise
  • 1/2 tsp Cracked Pepper
  • 1½ cups Shredded Cheese Blend**

Instructions

  1. First you will need to roast your garlic. See the How To Roast Garlic link below this recipe.
  2. Preheat oven to 350°
  3. Mash roasted garlic cloves with a fork until it becomes a thick paste.
  4. Thaw and drain the frozen artichoke hearts.
  5. Make sure you remove as much liquid as possible then chop artichokes into small pieces.
  6. Reserve 1/2 cup of the shredded cheese blend, put to the side.
  7. Mix all other ingredients together thoroughly and place into the desired baking dish.
  8. Top with the remaining 1/2 cup of shredded cheese.
  9. I also added a little more cracked pepper and an artichoke heart to garnish.
  10. Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes then broil for 3-5 minutes until the top is bubbly and brown.

Notes

*If you are timid about garlic, use only one head of roasted garlic.
**You don’t need this exact cheese blend but something similar with melty cheeses.
This recipe makes approximately 3 cups of dip.
If you are preparing this for a large group I suggest doubling the recipe.

I used the Trader Joes cheese blend (Asiago, Fontina, Parmesan and Mild Provolone) but mozzarella works just fine too

      Yes, I’m sure canned artichoke hearts would work. Just make sure they are not marinated artichoke hearts because I’m not sure how that would turn out. Enjoy!

    This looks awesome. And I had to laugh when I (just now) dug out my original art dip recipe from the ’80s that I shoveled into my face with Rye Krisp. It’s simply artichoke hearts, mayonnaise and Parmesan cheese.

    Just the cheese mix shows hour our tastes have changed over the years! More complicated flavor profiles.

    Thanks again for sharing your experiment.

      Sorry I wasn’t able to respond sooner. I’m sure you have already made this and figured out if it works or not. I have never tried regular yogurt. I imagine it wouldn’t change the flavor much but the consistency may be a bit thinner. Happy Holidays!

        Using the unsweetened yogurt worked just fine. The dip was devoured in 15 minutes and I doubled the recipe. Will make this again. It was a hit! Thank you.

    Just found your “Ahhh-mazing” recipe and after I get the ingredients (today) I’ll be making it! Since it’s just hubby and me, we might end up having it for dinner :o) Just one question…Is the cheese blend something that comes all mixed together? I’ve never seen that combination and I’m going to the store today so thought I’d ask in the hopes you see this soon. Thanks for your experiment!!!

      Hi Ruth! Yes, the shredded cheese blend comes mixed together. I usually buy mine at Trader Joe’s. But you can find a 4 cheese Italian blend at most grocery stores right next to all of the other bags of shredded cheese. This dip is always a HUGE hit with my family and friends. Enjoy!

    If this tastes as delicious hot as it does unbaked….WOW! I took a few liberties with your recipe. I used one head roasted garlic since it’s such a small amount. I also used marinated artichokes and added a bit of the oil to the cheese, yogurt, mayo, garlic mixture. I sprinkled a little Penzy’s Greek seasoning into it. I didn’t use as much cheese as called for in the recipe. What I tasted after mixing it up was delicious! This was a great base for me to start from. Thanks for sharing.

    Hi Nicole,

    I’m looking forward to making this for the first tiime and taking it to a casual Christmas gathering that will have about 20 people. My question for you is how much dip does this make? Will I need to double the recipe? Also, your photos looks fabulous and I’d like to buy an attractive dish that is sized properly for the recipe. Can you tell me what size of dish you used for the photo and was this just one quantity of the recipe that was pictured?

    Thanks a lot!

      I cook mine in a 27 ounce baking dish and that holds the entire amount of dip that this recipe yields. I would recommend doubling the recipe for 20 people. This dip usually goes fast!

    Thank you for this recipe. I am actually a teacher with a school garden with artichokes and garlic ready to be used. The kids are going to make this for their fathers for father’s day and put it in a jar. I have plenty of garlic growing and ready but not enough artichokes in the garden. I really would like to use partial fresh artichokes the kids are so proud of and the frozen. Does anyone see this being okay? Thank you all for your thoughts. I appreciate it. The kids will make this next week.

    I simply cannot WAIT to try this! A few conversions will need to be made because I’m in Australia, and we don’t have frozen artichokes or that cheese, but I’m assuming jarred artichoke hearts and a blend of perhaps havarti, parmesan, sharp cheddar, and perhaps some gruyere may work nicely? Am I safe to assume whole-egg mayonnaise was used? I might make three batches… one for me, and a double batch for me for later. Hahaha.

      June 13, 2015 at

      Hi Amanda! Some readers have substituted jarred artichokes and said that it worked great. Whatever melty cheeses you prefer should be fine. As far as the whole egg mayo … I’m not sure what that means. Maybe we have different terms here in the U.S. The mayo was definitely full fat if that is what you mean. Enjoy 😀

    I just made this dip for a New Year’s Eve party and it turned out so yummy. The only thing I did differently is I did not have any plain Greek yogurt but I did have a garlic and dill Greek yogurt dip. I also used canned hearts. The flavors with the roasted garlic, the dill Greek dip, the canned hearts and the cream cheese, oh my, so good. Thank you so much for such a yummy recipe.

    Amazing! I peeled the cloves and roasted them on the stove top with olive oil. Used some of the garlicky oil to coat pieces of naan that were baked along with the dip. Divine. Used sour cream instead of Greek yogurt but I can’t imagine it made much of a difference. Thanks for sharing!

    There is an ad that is right in the middle of your recipe, which does not allow you to print even using your print button. When you put into a reading pane, you don’t see the ingredients at all. You might want to fix.
