Applebee's Spinach Artichoke Dip
Description
This dip starts by blending softened cream cheese, whole milk, and pre-made Alfredo sauce seasoned with garlic to create a smooth, flavorful base. Adding chopped artichoke hearts and room-temperature spinach incorporates subtle vegetal notes and texture. Grated Parmesan, Romano, and mozzarella cheeses provide depth and richness as they melt during baking. The mixture is spread evenly in a prepared baking dish and baked at 350°F until the dip is heated through and lightly browned on top.
Applebee's Spinach Artichoke Dip is traditionally served warm with tortilla chips that offer a crunchy contrast to the creamy, cheesy dip. It works well as an appetizer or snack, encouraging sharing and dipping.
Ingredients
- 8 ounces cream cheese softened
- 1/4 cup milk whole
- 16 ounces Alfredo sauce with garlic
- 2 ounce cans artichoke hearts drained and chopped

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and spray an 8×8-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
