2-Ingredient Raspberry Chipotle Cream Cheese Dip

Sometimes a friend shares a recipe that becomes a mainstay at every gathering, and this is that Raspberry Cream Cheese Dip for me. Creamy, tangy cheese topped with a sweet-smoky raspberry chipotle sauce looks elegant but comes together in 5 minutes. It’s the perfect easy appetizer to bring along to a potluck or to serve when neighbors drop by.

You only need two ingredients, but the flavor is unforgettable. You get the tang and creaminess of the cheese, the berry sweetness, and a whisper of smoky heat from the chipotle that lingers but doesn’t overwhelms.

If you’re new to raspberry chipotle sauce, you’ll find it in the condiment aisle, sometimes near the barbecue sauces or jams. You can use any brand you like, you just want the sweet and smoky flavor. The chipotle adds a subtle warmth, not a lot of spice, so it’s friendly for all ages.

This is also a forgiving recipe. If you don’t have crackers, thinly sliced toasted baguette or even sturdy pita chips work well.

I keep a bottle of the raspberry sauce in the pantry to have on hand when I need an appetizer in a hurry. Serve this with some Cheesy Triscuit pickle snacks, they couldn’t be easier and they add a nice contrasting flavor.
