Jalapeno Popper Dip

Jalapeno Popper Dip

6 slices bacon
1 (8-oz.) block cream cheese, softened
1/3 c. mayonnaise
1/3 c. sour cream
1 tsp. garlic powder
2-3 jalapeños, minced
1 1/2 c. shredded cheddar
1 1/2 c. shredded Monterey Jack
salt and pepper to taste
green onion, thinly sliced

Preheat oven to 350º. In a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, cook bacon in batches until crispy, about 8 minutes. Drain on a paper towel–lined plate, then chop. In a large bowl, stir together cream cheese, mayo, sour cream, garlic powder, most of the cooked bacon (reserve some for topping), most of the jalapeños (reserve some for topping), and 1 cup each of cheddar and Monterey Jack. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a small oven-safe skillet or baking dish and sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup each of cheddar and Monterey Jack, cooked bacon, and jalapeño. Bake until dip is golden and bubbly, 15 to 20 minutes. Top with green onions. Serve with tortilla chips.
