Iron Skillet Fonduta is rich, flavorful, and cheesy. It’s college football season and this dish is an incredible addition to a party spread.
Using an iron skillet creates a wonderful baked cheese crust on the bottom and around the edges that everyone loves. If you do a good job of seeding and deveining the jalapeños, they will just add flavor and should not be spicy.
Ingredients:
2 (8 oz.) Blocks of cream cheese, softened (I used Market Pantry)
½ Cup of mayonnaise (I use Hellmann's)
2 Cups of shredded Monterey Jack cheese (I used Kraft)
1 ½ Cups of shredded Parmesan cheese (I used Kraft)
½ Cup of another shredded cheese (I used Kraft Italian Blend)
4 Seeded, deveined, and diced fresh jalapeños
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Spray your iron skillet with cooking spray.
In a large bowl combine all ingredients. I found it easier to mix it with my hand.
Using a spatula, scrape the mixture into an iron skillet.Bake the fonduta at 425 degrees for 30 minutes or until the top is bubbly and golden. I served mine with a loaf of sliced sourdough bread. This is also great with chips or crackers…and on a sandwich.
Can you tell that I really like this? I hope you'll try it at your next football party or get together.
