Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz sharp cheddar, shredded
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • 4 oz jar diced pimentos, drained
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ¼ tsp cayenne
  • ¼ tsp kosher salt
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce

Method
 

  1. Shred the sharp cheddar using a box grater. (About 2 minutes.)
  2. In a medium bowl, stir the cream cheese, mayo, garlic powder, cayenne, salt, and Worcestershire together until completely smooth.
  3. Fold in the drained pimentos and shredded cheddar until just combined. Transfer to a serving bowl, top with a few extra pimento strips, and serve right away or chill 30 minutes for deeper flavor.

Notes

For the best flavor, let it chill at least 30 minutes before serving so the spices meld. The dip will thicken slightly in the fridge, so stir in a splash of milk if it feels too stiff.
