This oven-baked spinach artichoke dip is an easy, crowd-pleasing appetizer. Creamy cream cheese, tender artichokes, spinach and two cheeses combine for a rich, melty dip that disappears fast at parties and family gatherings.
I’m looking forward to relaxing over the holiday weekend with family — stretchy pants included — and I’ll be bringing an unbeatable snack spread. While the others watch football, I’ll be enjoying quiet time and a puzzle with my mom. Naturally, the snack lineup will be on point.
My family loves spinach artichoke dip, so I developed this straightforward version that’s extra creamy, cheesy and full of flavor. We serve it with pita chips and fresh vegetables, but it pairs well with any favorite dippers.
To boost flavor, I swap typical Parmesan for Roth Grand Cru® cheese. Grand Cru adds a nutty, mellow, slightly fruity depth that shines in dishes where the cheese is front and center, making this dip especially flavorful and silky.

Can you make the dip ahead of time?
Yes. There are two convenient options:
