Ingredients

8 ounces cream cheese softened (226 grams)
⅔ cup sour cream or plain greek yogurt or mayonnaise (164 grams)
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 cup pizza sauce or marinara sauce (256 grams)
8 ounces shredded mozzarella cheese about 2 cups, divided (226 grams)
15 Pepperoni slices you'll need more if you're using the mini Pepperoni

Topping

⅓ cup Parmesan cheese grated
½ teaspoon Italian seasoning

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F. Lightly spray a 9 inch pie plate or 7 x 11 inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.
In a mixing bowl combine the cream cheese, sour cream, and 1 teaspoon of the Italian seasoning. Spread the mixture into the prepared pie plate.

Top the cream cheese mixture with the pizza sauce (or marinara sauce if you are using that).
1 cup pizza sauce
Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese over the pizza sauce and top with your desired amount of pepperoni slices.
8 ounces shredded mozzarella cheese, 15 Pepperoni slices
Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until the cheese is completely melted. If you prefer, you can broil the dip for 2-3 minutes to brown the cheese slightly.
Sprinkle with the remaining ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning and grated Parmesan cheese.

Serve warm with your choice of dippers.

Notes

Serve this dip with crackers, corn chips, tortilla chips, crostini, garlic bread, or vegetables.

Storage Information: Store any leftover Pizza Dip tightly covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. I don't recommend freezing this dip.

You can reheat this dip either in the microwave or the oven on low heat. If reheating in the oven I recommend heating at 325°F and covering with foil or an oven-safe lid to prevent the cheese from over-browning.
