Ingredients
12 ounces Italian sausage

1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
How to Make Sausage Cheese Dip

Step 1: Brown the Sausage and Onion
Start by browning the Italian sausage and diced onion in a large pan over medium heat. Cook until the sausage is fully browned with no pink remaining, and the onions are soft and translucent. If there’s any excess fat, drain it off to keep the dip from being too greasy.

Step 2: Melt the Cheeses
Lower the heat slightly, then add the processed cheese block and cream cheese directly into the pan. Stir continuously until both cheeses are completely melted and smooth. The key here is patience—make sure everything is well-combined and creamy!

Step 3: Add Flavor and Heat
Now, whisk in the dry mustard powder, milk, and Worcestershire sauce. Keep stirring as you bring the mixture to a gentle bubble. This step enhances the depth of flavor, giving the dip that little extra something that makes it so addictive.

Step 4: Finish with Cheddar
Finally, stir in the sharp cheddar cheese. Mix until it’s fully melted and the dip has a luscious, gooey consistency. The smell when this is on the stove is incredible!!

Step 5: Serve and Enjoy
Pour the dip into a serving bowl and bring it straight to the table while it’s still hot and bubbly. Serve with plenty of tortilla chips or crostini, and watch it disappear!

Helpful Tips
Slow Cooker Option: Want to keep the dip warm throughout your event? Transfer the finished dip to a slow cooker on the “warm” setting. This way, it stays perfectly melted and ready to serve all night long.
