I always enjoyed traditional artichoke-cheese dip, and for a party, I wanted to create a new appetizer that was a spin on that. This original creation is a bit reminiscent of the dip recipe, and works well on a buffet. —Sherry Johnston, Green Cove Springs, Florida

Ingredients

2 cans (14 ounces each) artichoke bottoms, drained
1 package (16 ounces) frozen leaf spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
3/4 cup heavy whipping cream
3/4 cup shredded Swiss cheese
3/4 cup chopped or sliced almonds, divided
2 large garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons prepared horseradish
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper

Directions

Preheat oven to 400°. Rinse artichoke bottoms; pat dry with paper towels. Combine spinach with cream, Swiss cheese and 1/2 cup almonds; mix in garlic, horseradish, salt and pepper. Place artichoke bottoms on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Mound spinach mixture on artichokes; sprinkle with remaining almonds.
Bake until almonds turn golden brown, 20-25 minutes. Serve hot or at room temperature.

Test Kitchen tip

For less mess and drier spinach, try a cone-shaped coffee filter. Simply divide spinach into six portions; transfer each to the coffee filter, and wring dry. Easy squeezy!
