- Soften the Cream Cheese – Softened Cream Cheese spreads much easier than cold cream cheese. To soften the cream cheese, take it out of the fridge for an hour or so before making the dip.
- Quarter the Pepperoni Slices – Everyone wants some of the pepperoni when they eat this dip. Cut the pepperoni into quarters or buy the mini pepperoni slices so that everyone gets some of it.
- Change up the Toppings – Make this dip like you would your favorite pizza and change up the toppings.
- Make the Dip Ahead of Time – Prepare the dip ahead of time without baking it. Keep it covered in the fridge for a day or so until needed. Then bake and enjoy.
