- 8 ounces cream cheese softened
- ¾ cup pizza sauce
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- ½ teaspoon garlic salt or powder
- ½ teaspoon onion salt or powder
- ½ teaspoon sweet basil
- ½ teaspoon oregano
- 1 ½ cups mozzarella shredded, more if you're like me and can't get enough cheese
- 4 ounces pepperoni sliced thinly
Spray a microwave safe dish or bowl with non-stick spray lightly.
Soften your cream cheese. You can take it out of the fridge ahead of time, or pop in a bowl and microwave it for about 30 to 45 seconds. Mix it with a spoon and then transfer it to the microwave safe dish. Spread evenly.
In a medium sized bowl mix your pizza sauce, sugar and spices. The sugar and spices are optional. I like a little extra kick in my dip. Pour this over top of the cream cheese and smooth out.
Sprinkle the cheese over top evenly.
Top with pepperoni.
Pop the dish in the microwave, and depending on the size and strength of your microwave, cook for about 2 to 4 minutes. You want the cheese melted so it's nice and stretchy when people dunk.
Serve with chips or crackers, or a giant spoon and a big old smile!
