Pepperoni Pizza Dip Recipe
- 2 1/2 cups shredded whole-milk mozzarella (about 8 ounces)
- 2 ounces pepperoni slices (about 26 thin slices), quartered
- 8 ounces cream cheese, cut into large pieces
- 7 ounces whole-milk ricotta cheese (about 1 cup)
- 1/4 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese (about 1/2 ounce)
- 2 tablespoons coarsely chopped oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 3/4 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1 1/2 pounds toasted ciabatta, soft breadsticks, or garlic bread, for serving
- Heat the oven to 375 degrees F and arrange a rack in the middle.
- Place half of the mozzarella, half of the pepperoni, the cream cheese, ricotta, Parmesan, sun-dried tomatoes, salt, oregano, and red pepper flakes in a food processor fitted with the blade attachment.
- Process until smooth, about 45 seconds (there may still be a few small bits of pepperoni).
- Transfer the mixture to a 9-inch pie plate and smooth the top.
- Evenly sprinkle with the remaining mozzarella and pepperoni.
- Bake until the dip is heated through and bubbling around the edges and the cheese on top is melted, about 15 minutes.
- Serve immediately with the ciabatta bread, breadsticks, or garlic bread for dipping.
