What You’ll Need
- Cream cheese. Soften it before mixing so it blends easily with the mayonnaise.
- Provolone. Shred a block or chop sliced provolone into small pieces so the cheese is evenly distributed.
- Mayonnaise. Stir it into the cream cheese to give the dip a soft, scoopable texture.
How to Make Provolone Caldwell Dip
Mix the softened cream cheese, provolone, and mayonnaise in one bowl. Spread the mixture in a lightly greased small baking dish or pie plate and bake at 350°F for 20 to 25 minutes. Look for bubbling around the edges and golden spots across the surface.
What to Serve with Provolone Caldwell Dip
Give the dip 5 minutes to settle before serving. Sturdy crackers, toasted baguette slices, and pita chips can hold a generous scoop of the melted cheese.
