Ingredients

For the Dip

1 cup canned artichoke hearts Adds a tender, earthy flavor; drain and chop to minimize moisture.
2–3 pieces jalapeños Provides heat; adjust the number for desired spice level and remove seeds for a milder dip.
1 cup cream cheese (softened) Creates a rich, creamy base; make sure it's at room temperature for easy blending.
1/2 cup mayonnaise Helps achieve the dip's creamy consistency; you can substitute with Greek yogurt for a lighter option.
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese Contributes to that melty texture; freshly grate to avoid fillers that inhibit melting.
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese Adds sharpness and depth; using fresh will give the best flavor.
2 cloves garlic (minced) Enhances flavor with aromatic quality; feel free to adjust to your taste.
1/4 tsp smoked paprika (optional) Adds subtle smoky notes; you can omit this if you prefer a cleaner flavor.
Salt and pepper to taste Essential for balancing all the flavors.

Method

Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, shredded mozzarella, grated Parmesan, minced garlic, and diced jalapeños. Blend until smooth and creamy, about 2–3 minutes.
Gently fold in the chopped artichoke hearts using a spatula, being careful not to over-mix.
Transfer the dip mixture into an oven-safe baking dish and smooth the top.
Bake for 20–25 minutes, aiming for a golden brown top and bubbly edges.
Once baked, allow the dip to cool for about 5–10 minutes before serving.

This dip can be prepared the day before. Store in the fridge and bake just before serving for maximum flavor. Its creamy texture is best enjoyed warm with your choice of dippers.
