Hissy Fit Dip is a rich, cheesy sausage dip that’s perfect for parties or cozy snacks. Made with ground breakfast sausage, velveta, cream cheese, sour cream, and a blend of cheddar and mozzarella cheeses, it’s baked to a bubbly, golden perfection. Creamy, savory, and full of umami flavor from Worcestershire sauce and spices, this dip pairs perfectly with chips or crusty bread.

Ingredients

Scale

Meat

  • 1 lb ground breakfast sausage (mild or spicy)

Cheeses

  • 8 oz Velveeta cheese, cut into cubes
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese, divided
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Dairy

  • 1/2 cup sour cream

Seasonings & Sauces

  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

Optional Add-ins

  • Diced jalapeños, green onions, or red pepper flakes to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prep: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a medium-sized baking dish to prevent sticking and prepare for baking.
  2. Cook the Sausage: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground sausage until it is browned and fully cooked through. Make sure to break it up into small crumbles. Drain off the excess grease and set the cooked sausage aside.
  3. Combine Creamy Base: In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, Velveeta cheese cubes, Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, and garlic powder. Stir or beat the mixture until it is mostly smooth and well incorporated.
  4. Add the Sausage and Cheese: Fold the cooked sausage into the creamy mixture, then add the shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses. Stir everything together until evenly mixed.
  5. Transfer to Baking Dish: Spread the dip mixture evenly into your prepared baking dish. For a golden, cheesy crust, sprinkle a little extra shredded cheddar on top.
  6. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the dip is bubbly and golden brown around the edges.
  7. Serve Hot: Allow the dip to cool for about 5 minutes before serving. Serve alongside tortilla chips, crackers, or sliced baguette for dipping.

Notes

  • Use mild or spicy breakfast sausage depending on your preferred spice level.
  • Drain cooked sausage thoroughly to avoid a greasy dip.
  • Velveeta cheese is key for the classic creamy texture; cut into cubes for easier melting.
  • You can substitute Greek yogurt for sour cream for a tangier base.
  • Add diced jalapeños, green onions, or red pepper flakes if you want to add heat and extra flavor.
  • Let the dip rest for a few minutes after baking to set and cool slightly for safe, enjoyable eating.
