Tortilla chips, sliced baguette, crackers, or breadsticks for dipping
# Instructions:
01 -
Set your oven to 375°F (190°C). Coat a 9-inch pie pan or a heatproof skillet lightly with cooking spray, so nothing sticks.
02 -
Blend the cream cheese, sour cream, garlic powder, and seasoning until it's nice and smooth. Spread this mixture evenly to cover the bottom of your dish.
03 -
Spread marinara over the creamy layer. Sprinkle half the cheeses on top, arrange your pepperoni pieces however you like, and finish with the rest of the cheese.
04 -
Bake for about 20-25 minutes until everything's bubbly. Want it extra toasty? Pop it under the broiler for a minute but keep an eye on it. Let it cool a bit, toss on some basil if you'd like, and enjoy with your favorite dippers.
# Notes:
01 -
Make everything the day before, and bake it off when you're ready to serve.
02 -
Feel free to mix in veggies like mushrooms, olives, or peppers.
03 -
Spicy fans can throw in some chili flakes or spicy pepperoni!
