Chipotle bacon corn dip is by far, the BEST dip I’ve ever had. And I’m a pretty hard core chips and dip girl. I have tried several versions of corn dip, trying to find JUST the right one. After perusing many of the hundreds, if not thousands of recipes online – there’s a reason why some people call it crack corn – I decided to scrap it and start completely from scratch. Like the artichoke dip I make and love, I started with the same 3 creamy must haves and then dabbled in what seemed like endless flavor combinations until I found a winner. And let me tell ya, chipotle bacon corn dip packs one heck of a punch! If it’s too spicy for you, decrease or leave out the chipotle and/or cayenne altogether, it is still a scrumptious dip without the heat. But if you love a chipotle kick, you won’t be able to get enough. I’m just a little obsessed. I could eat this for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. And as a bedtime snack. The other great thing about this appetizer – I can swap out ingredients with what I have in my pantry. You can and probably will do the same. Adjust the ingredients to make it yours. That’s the fun of cooking. Get creative!

It’s fun to serve up with blue corn chips, but I only had white corn chips on hand. Now, go and stock up that pantry with these ingredients. You can thank me (or hate me) later.
I’ve had great luck with stirring/scraping/and scooping with these spatulas.
