It&#8217;s a refreshing change of pace from the typical queso dip or layered dip with refried beans, guacamole and salsa. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/cream-cheese-dip-recipes\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/cream-cheese-dip-recipes\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">Cream cheese dips<\/a> pair well with tortilla chips for dipping, and that works especially well for this recipe where cream cheese and sour cream are blended with taco seasoning. And because this dip is served cold, you don&#8217;t have to find an outlet to plug in your slow cooker!<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ll show you how to make this taco dip in two easy steps. First, prepare the creamy dip base. Whipping the cream cheese by hand takes a lot of elbow grease, so use a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/best-hand-mixer\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/best-hand-mixer\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">hand mixer<\/a> if you have one. Then, layer the dip, spreading the base into a pie plate and topping it with shredded cheese and delightful toppings. That&#8217;s it: It really is that easy!<\/p>\n<h2>Taco Dip Ingredients<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1980591\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Taco-Dip_TOHVS24_276096_MF_03_26_1_KSedit.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"All Ingredients for Taco Dip on Wooden Surface\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Cream cheese and sour cream: <\/strong>These ingredients combine to create a rich, creamy dip base.

We add extra cayenne pepper to kick up the heat, but feel free to adjust the amount based on your spice preference.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Lime juice:<\/strong> Acidic lime juice adds depth and balances the rich flavor of the cream cheese.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Shredded cheese:<\/strong> Cheddar cheese is our go-to option, but you could use a Mexican cheese blend. For a fun twist, try crumbled Cotija cheese.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Toppings: <\/strong>You can use any of your favorite <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/taco-toppings\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/taco-toppings\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">taco toppings<\/a>. We like the combination of crisp lettuce, juicy tomatoes and briny olives, but the sky&#8217;s the limit! Just make sure to drain the tomatoes and any canned toppings to avoid watering down the dip.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Optional additions:<\/strong> For an added flavor boost, finish the taco dip with cooked ground beef, sliced green onions or crushed nacho-flavored tortilla chips.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Directions<\/h2>\n<h3>Step 1: Make the creamy dip base<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1980592\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Taco-Dip_TOHVS24_276096_MF_03_26_2.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"In a large bowl mixing cream cheese and sour cream using a hand mixer\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese, sour cream, taco seasoning, cayenne and lime juice until smooth.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 2: Spread the creamy dip base<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1980593\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Taco-Dip_TOHVS24_276096_MF_03_26_3.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Spreading Taco Dip Cream on a pie plate on wooden surface\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Spread the base into the bottom of a 9-inch pie plate or shallow serving dish.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 3: Finish the taco dip<\/h3>\n<p>Top the base with lettuce, cheese, tomatoes and olives.

The vegetable toppings will wilt in the fridge, so leave them for later.<\/p>\n<p>When you&#8217;re ready to eat the taco dip, put it on the counter for about 30 minutes to let the cream cheese soften.
