Hissy Fit Dip is a southern party favorite that really lives up to its fun name. It is packed with savory sausage and a blend of melty cheeses, making it the perfect treat to pull out when you have friends over for a game or a get together.

People love this dip because it is incredibly simple to prepare but tastes like you spent all day in the kitchen. My best tip is to use a hand mixer to get your cream cheese and sour cream base nice and smooth before you fold in the rest of the ingredients.

🧺 Ingredients

1 pound ground sausage
16 ounces sour cream
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
8 ounces Velveeta cheese, cubed
6 ounces muenster cheese, shredded or chopped
4 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon ground sage
2 tablespoons green onions, plus extra for garnish

👩‍🍳Instructions

1
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and lightly spray a 2 quart baking dish with cooking spray.
2
Heat a large skillet over medium high heat and cook the ground sausage until it is browned and no pink remains, making sure to crumble it as you go.
3
Drain the excess fat from the skillet and set the cooked sausage aside.
4
In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and sour cream together with a hand mixer until the mixture is smooth.
5
Add the Velveeta, muenster cheese, Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, garlic powder, sage, and green onions to the bowl and beat again until well combined.
6
Stir the cooked sausage into your cheese mixture.
7
Spread the dip into your prepared baking dish and smooth the top with a spoon.
8
Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the edges are bubbling and the top is golden brown.
9
Garnish with extra green onions and serve warm with tortilla chips or crackers.

💡 Tips

Serve this dip while it is hot with sturdy tortilla chips, crackers, or slices of crusty bread. If you have leftovers, keep them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days and gently reheat in the microwave or oven.
