Substitutions

Use Greek yogurt instead of sour cream for a tangier flavor.
Cook and finely chop 4-6 ounces of roast beef or deli meat as a substitute for the dried chipped beef.
Add diced green peppers, onions, or horseradish for extra flavor.
You can use low-fat cream cheese and sour cream, but the texture may be slightly less creamy.
While cream cheese works best as the base, you can experiment with adding shredded cheddar or Monterey Jack for extra cheesiness. I would start adding in ¼ cup increments.

Prep tip

If you're short on time, you can microwave the cream cheese for 10-15 seconds to soften it quickly.

Instructions

This dip comes together in just 35 minutes and requires no fancy ingredients-just simple, pantry staples. Check your pantry, you might have the ingredients to make my famous hot bacon dressing too!

Preheat the oven to 350°F.
In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, Worcestershire sauce, and garlic powder. Mix until smooth and no lumps remain.
Stir in the diced chipped beef and sliced green onions.
Transfer the mixture to a baking dish and smooth the top.
Bake for 20-30 minutes, or until the dip is bubbly around the edges and heated through.
Garnish with extra chipped beef and green onions, if desired.

Notes

How do you reheat chipped beef dip?

I am a fan of reheating chipped beef dip in the oven. I place it in an unheated oven and then heat the oven to 350. By the time the oven comes to temperature, the dip has also come to temperature.

But if an oven is not available or if you are short on time, microwaving the hot beef dip in 30-second intervals is also a great option. Just be sure to stir it to distribute any hot pockets.

Chef Tip

Chipped beef dip is the perfect appetizer that can be made ahead. In fact, I think the recipe is even more delicious if the ingredients are able to marinate for 1-2 hours or overnight. Keep the dip covered and in the refrigerator until it is time to heat the dip for serving.
