Pepperoni Pizza Dip

Hey there guys! It’s Tiffany from Creme de la Crumb back with an awesome recipe you will love love love! Are you surviving the holidays?? And by surviving I mean eating as much gingerbread loaf covered in cream cheese frosting as you can get your hands on and watching Hallmark Holiday specials every night of course. Well, try out this pizza dip recipe now.

There are many things I love but somewhere near the to of the list is “Holiday traditions”, followed closely by “all things CHEESE”. And pizza definitely counts as an “all things cheese” item. Even though I get really excited about fancy pizzas with gourmet toppings, I always come back to a classic pepperoni pizza from time to time because really, sometimes classic is exactly what you need. Bread + sauce + cheese + spicy pepperoni.

This dip is PERFECT for holiday get togethers, especially if you’re planning a New Years party! Nothing like ringing in the new year with a dish full of pizza you can DIP, scoop and smother to your hearts content! The best part is how easy it is – just five ingredients! Can’t beat that!
