Hot Bacon Cheese Dip

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 15 min. Cook: 2 hours YIELD: 4 cups.
I've tried assorted appetizers before, but this one is a surefire people-pleaser. The thick bacon cheese dip has lots of flavor and keeps my guests happily munching as long as it lasts. I serve it with tortilla chips or sliced French bread. —Suzanne Whitaker, Knoxville, Tennessee
