Chili cheese dip is a creamy, savory, and indulgent dip that is usually served for parties or to enjoy while watching your favorite sports games.

The bold flavors of the tomatoes and green chilies complement the richness of the melted cheese, while the chili powder and cumin add a subtle kick of heat that is not overwhelming.
The crock pot is the best tool for making chili cheese dip because it allows the flavors to meld together slowly and evenly. The low heat of the crock pot ensures that the cheese melts gradually, which results in a smooth and creamy texture. Plus, the longer the dip cooks, the more flavorful it becomes. The crock pot also has a warm setting which is great when you're feeding a crowd to keep it at the perfect temperature!

To make it even more exciting, you can customize the dip by adding toppings like diced jalapeños, sliced black olives, or chopped fresh cilantro. No matter how you serve it, chili cheese dip is a guaranteed crowd-pleaser!

HOW TO MAKE CHILI CHEESE DIP IN THE CROCK POT
Add wet ingredients: Pour Rotel tomatoes, chili, and milk into the crock pot. Stir until well combined.
Prepare the Velveeta: Using a sharp knife, cut the Velveeta into cubes about one inch in size. Add them to the top of the liquid mixture in the crock pot.
Add seasonings: Sprinkle the chili powder and cumin on top of the mixture, then stir to combine evenly.
Cover and cook: Add the lid to the top and cook on LOW for 2-3 hours or HIGH for 1-2 hours or until the cheese is fully melted. Stir occasionally during the cooking process. Enjoy!
STORAGE
Storing: Store leftover chili cheese dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. If the dip has thickened in the fridge, you can thin it out with a splash of milk when reheating.
Reheating: To reheat, simply microwave the dip in a microwave-safe container in 30-second intervals until heated through, stirring in between each interval.
Freezing: Due to the high-fat content, freezing is not recommended as the cheese may become grainy, and the texture of the dip may change.
