Instructions
- Take the cream cheese out of the fridge to allow it to soften. Preheat oven to 375F. Move rack to the top third of the oven.
- Grate the cheeses (if not buying pre-grated) and cut the chorizo into bite-size pieces.
- Mix together the cream cheese, half the parmesan, the garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, sour cream, and salt & pepper. Spread it evenly along the bottom of a baking dish (I used a glass pie dish).
- Add the tomato sauce and spread it over the cream cheese mixture. Add the basil leaves (tear them into smaller pieces) then the rest of the parmesan, the cheddar/mozza cheese, and finish off with the chorizo on top.
- Bake for 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, if you want to make the garlic baguette toasts, slice the baguette into fairly thin slices. Add butter to a skillet on medium-high heat and fry each slice. When they're nearly done, lightly sprinkle them with garlic powder. If the pan starts to smoke, I suggest turning the heat down. Alternatively, you could just use a toaster to toast the baguette slices and then add butter and garlic powder after.
- Serve the dip hot out of the oven :)
Notes
- I used a Pyrex 9.5 inch glass pie dish like this one.
- Chorizo is fairly salty, so you can get away without adding extra salt.
- This dip can be re-warmed in the oven the next day, but it is best fresh.
