Hot Honey Chili Crunch Dip.
This hot honey chili crunch dip is the perfect make-ahead snack! A chilled dip made with hot honey, sharp cheddar, lime, chili crunch and cilantro is the best dip for pretzels, crackers, crudite and more. So easy and delicious!
It’s a weekend meant for cheese!
Super bowl weekend is here and this hot honey chili crunch dip could not be more perfect. It’s cheesy, creamy, a little spicy and fluffy enough to be a dip, spread or stuffed in a grilled cheese.
It’s sure to be a hit of your game day gathering!
This dip has so many ingredients that I love. Hot honey! Chili crisp! Sharp cheddar! Green onions! Cue all the exclamation points because it’s very delicious and super easy to make.
It’s also a great dip to make ahead of time. Trust me, it only gets better as it sits. You can make this the night before or the morning of a party and it will be FANTASTIC.
You can put it in the center of a snack dish piled high with just about anything because absolutely everything dipped in this is pure heaven.
It tastes so good! In these photos, I’m serving it with these red pepper cheddar crackers.
And you guys know that I don’t love super spicy things, so if I love it… it’s manageable.
This dip is served chilled and can be compared to the consistency of pimento cheese or my jarlsberg dip. It also reminds me of my chilled queso, which is another fabulous recipe you should make this weekend.
It’s creamy but also mousse-like, making it the perfect dip for things like pretzel sticks, crackers, and even celery and carrots.
It isn’t super spicy, but it has a hint of heat from both the hot honey and the chili crunch. It is worth mentioning that the heat in the recipe will depend on the brand of products you use. I use Mike’s hot honey and Fly By Jing chili crunch. Feel free to add more of these ingredients if you like things extra spicy!
You mix everything together and then pop it into the fridge. It’s actually fine if you don’t have time to put it in the fridge. But if you do – do it. It can be the flavor game changer.
It’s a perfect dip for all the things.

So good! Was a hit yesterday during the game!
Made this for the Super Bowl and it was definitely a crowd favorite! Everyone was gushing over it! I can’t wait to make it again for other events/holidays.
