Here's the thing...people love this dip. And if you're in a hurry, it's so easy to throw together. Make it fancy if you wish, but, frankly, you don't need to.

Say whatever you want about the lack of sophistication of this dish, but the fact remains that it's delicious, easy and a crowd pleaser. Like the reviewer below, I freeze homemade chili specifically for this dish. That way you can control the heat and quality of ingredients.

My friends go nuts for this dip and I make it all the time. But I try to use homemade chili if possible (Every time I make chili, I freeze some for that purpose.) To give it needed kick, I add a lawyer of salsa between the chili and the cheese and use a mix of cheddar and pepper jack cheese.

It's easy and cheese, but nothing spectacular.

I needed a really fast and easy recipe for a neighborhood party and decided to make this. I used a can of chile with no beans, but otherwise followed the recipe exactly. People ate it, but I thought it was kind of gross given the puddle of fat on top of the dish as the cheddar cheese cooled.

It is a little bland, but still was gobbled up. Maybe it was the chili I used, hormel... Next time I will add some chopped onion to the chili or between the cream cheese and chili layer to add some interest. Guys love this dish! Also good substite for chili is salsa.

i call this my jersey dip. i've been making a version since i was 8 in south jersey, recipe courtesy of-- oh, one of those elementary school send in a recipe cookbooks?--with a layer of salsa instead of the chili. it's oh-so- so-so-so good. exactly the kind of delicious junk food that everyone loves to love.

I make this with chili with no beans, with a dash of mild type hot sauce added to it. I also add a can of chopped green chilies on top of the creamed cheese. FAMILY FAVORITE

This disappeared so fast. All the kids stood around the table eating the dip and ignoring the cookies and other snacks that were next to it. This recipe is just what I needed: fast, easy and yummy comfort food.

我花了两个小时做我的辣椒的middle layer. I do not always have beans on hand so I made mine beanless. It turned out to be just right for a Church Pot Luck.

Sometimes you do not need 20 ingredients and 2 hours of preparation to make something that is a hit at a party! This dip is easy and delicious. No one could move away from it. I made it in a fancy pie plate to give it some flair.

Since when did pouring a can of anything over a slab of cheese become cooking. There are so many other wonderful recipes to make, why waste your time (even if it is only 5 minutes). Anyway, by the time you doctor this up, you could have truly made someting from scratch or less processed.

I have been making this for years, and it is always a hit at parties. I put sliced black olives, sliced green onions and chopped jalapeno peppers on top.

Made this exactly as directed. Can't understand why it received such rave reviews. I thought it was really BLAH!
