Equipment
- Oven
Ingredients
- 16 ounces creamy Neufchâtel cheese
- 4 cups sharp aged cheddar cheese
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1 1/2 cups Captain Rodney's Boucan Glaze divided
- 8 slices crispy pancetta cooked, chopped, divided
- 1 cup buttery cracker crumbs
- 4 scallions more for garnish if desired
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line a baking dish with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Neufchâtel cheese, sharp cheddar cheese, 1 cup of Captain Rodney's Boucan Glaze, half of the chopped pancetta, and finely chopped scallions. Mix these ingredients until well combined.
- Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
- In a separate bowl, combine the remaining 1/2 cup of Captain Rodney's Boucan Glaze with the buttery cracker crumbs and the rest of the chopped pancetta. Mix well to create the topping.
- Sprinkle the cracker crumb mixture evenly over the top of the dip mixture in the baking dish.
- Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 25-30 minutes or until the dip is bubbly and the top is golden brown.
- Once done, remove the dip from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.
- Garnish with additional chopped scallions if desired before serving.
- Serve the Captain Rodney's Dip warm with your choice of crackers, sliced baguette, or vegetable sticks for dipping.
Notes
- For a vegetarian option, you can replace the crispy pancetta with crispy fried onions or even caramelized onions for added flavor.
- If you prefer a spicier dip, you can add a tablespoon of hot sauce or diced jalapeños to the mixture before baking.
- To make the dip ahead of time, prepare the dip according to steps 1-4 and refrigerate. When ready to serve, follow the remaining steps and bake as directed.
- If you have any leftover dip, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Reheat in the oven or microwave before serving.
- Feel free to adjust the amount of Captain Rodney's Boucan Glaze according to your taste preferences. If you prefer a milder flavor, reduce the amount slightly. For a bolder taste, add more glaze.
