All Our Best Party Dips (Including Dessert Dip!)

Smoked Salmon DipEveryone loves dip. That’s just a fact of life. For your long-weekend partying pleasure, we’ve rounded up our favorite recipes for scooping and spreading. From appetizers to sweet desserts, you can do the dip at every meal, all weekend long!

Smoked Salmon Dip (above)
Nobody does a crudite platter quite like Ina Garten. To create an addictive savory spread for raw veggies, she starts with a base of cream cheese and sour cream, then mixes in fresh dill, horseradish and smoked salmon.

Pimento cheese turns any gathering into an instant party! Sunny Anderson’s recipe combines Colby and pepper Jack with pimentos and hot smoked paprika for a spicy Southern treat. Serve it with crackers or bread.

Your favorite sandwich now comes in dip form. Sandra Lee’s cool, creamy four-ingredient dip is studded with sun-dried tomatoes and bacon bits. It’s cleverly presented inside a hollowed-out head of iceberg lettuce and served with pita wedges.

Ina Garten's GuacamoleIna Garten’s Guacamole
Rock out with your guac out! If you serve this creamy, zesty avocado dip at your cookout, there definitely won’t be leftovers. Not only does it make a great appetizer, but it’s also perfect alongside grilled steak or chicken — or as a burger topping. Consider making a double batch!

Hot Crab DipHot Crab Dip
This appetizer tastes indulgent, but it is actually downright virtuous! Reduced-fat cream cheese and sour cream are the healthy keys to this warm, creamy dip. A bit of crab boil spice, hot sauce, lemon juice and herbs give it a fresh taste.

Summer Salsa with a ShotSummer Salsa with a Shot
This fresh tomato salsa is for adults only. Along with a nice measure of heat that comes from minced jalapeno, it contains another decidedly grown-up ingredient: tequila!

Yes, you read that right. Dip is for dessert now (and frankly it’s much easier to whip up than a cake or pie!). Try our takes on Strawberry Shortcake Dip, Key Lime Pie Dip, Chocolate Cookie Dough Dip and more!
