Ree Drummond Million Dollar Dip Recipes

HOT CORN DIP

Steps:

• Heat a grill pan over medium heat (or preheat an outdoor grill). Brush the corn with vegetable oil, sprinkle with a little salt and grill, turning, until slightly charred, about 10 minutes. Set aside to cool.
• In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the red onion, garlic, bell peppers and jalapeño. Stir and cook the veggies until they?re soft and golden, about 5 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.
• Cut the corn kernels off the cobs. (You can stand the cob in the center of a Bundt pan to keep the kernels from winding up all over the universe!)
• In the bowl of a mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, combine the cream cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream and two-thirds of the monterey jack. Mix on low speed until combined. Add the scallions, veggie mixture, corn and canned chiles in their liquid. Mix until just combined.
• Spread the mixture in a 3-quart baking dish and sprinkle with the rest of the monterey jack and a little chili powder. (At this point, you can cover the pan with foil and keep it in the fridge for up to 2 days. Just let it sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before baking.)
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Bake the dip until bubbling and golden, 20 to 22 minutes. Remove from the oven and serve warm with tortilla chips.

QUICK MILLIONAIRE SHORTBREAD

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with foil and coat with an even layer of coconut cooking spray. Lay the graham crackers out on the baking sheet in a single layer. Set aside.
• Add the chopped semisweet chocolate to a heatsafe mixing bowl set over a pan of simmering water. Add the coconut oil to the bowl with the chocolate and allow it to melt. Heat, stirring, until smooth, 2 to 3 minutes. Leave the mixture in the pan, over the water, until ready to use.
• In a separate bowl, add the chopped chocolate candies and candy bars and mix to combine.
• Spoon the dulce de leche into a microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 15-second increments, stirring in between to make sure it doesn't burn, until slightly softened and more spreadable. The time needed will vary on your microwave--roughly 30 to 90 seconds.
• Scoop the warm dulce de leche onto the graham cracker base and spread it nearly to the edges using an offset spatula.
• Give the melted chocolate and coconut oil mixture a quick stir and pour it over the dulce de leche, spreading it evenly with a clean offset spatula. Working quickly, sprinkle the candies over the top of the dulce de leche.
• Transfer the baking sheet to the fridge and chill, uncovered, until set, about 2 hours. Once chilled, carefully remove from the baking sheet to a cutting board. Using a long serrated knife, cut the slab into 30 roughly 2-inch squares. Smaller is better as they're rich! Serve cold or at room temperature.

MAPLE BACON DIP

Steps:

• In a medium skillet over medium heat, fry the bacon until slightly crisp, 10 to 12 minutes. Drain on a paper towel and set aside.
• Place the yogurt, maple syrup, brown sugar, vanilla and maple flavoring in a medium bowl. Mix together until smooth and fully combined.
• Chop the bacon into pieces. Fold two-thirds of the bacon into the yogurt mix and transfer to a serving dish. Garnish with the remaining bacon.
• Cut the apples into slices and toss in the lemon juice. Serve with the dip.

MILLION DOLLAR DIP

Steps:

• Toast almonds in a saucepan over medium heat until lightly golden.
• Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until crispy and evenly browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain and cool slightly before chopping into bits.
• Combine mayonnaise and Cheddar cheese in a mixing bowl. Toss in bacon, green onions, almonds, and cayenne. Stir with a spatula until combined. Wrap and chill in the fridge at least 1 hour before transferring to a serving bowl.
