Hot Cheesy Shrimp Dip with Garlic Toast

While the dip bakes, brush baguette slices with olive oil or melted butter. Toast in the oven or on a skillet until golden. While still warm, rub each toast lightly with the cut side of the garlic clove for bold flavor.

5️⃣ Garnish & Serve

Remove the dip from the oven, sprinkle with extra chopped chives and chili flakes (if using), and serve hot with warm garlic toast.

💡 Tips & Variations

• Make ahead: Assemble the dip and refrigerate it up to 1 day in advance. Bake just before serving.
• Add-ins: Stir in chopped spinach, artichokes, or a splash of hot sauce for extra flavor.
• Swap it: Use crab or a mix of seafood for variation.

📦 Storage

• Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave until warm and creamy again.

Creamy, garlicky, seafood-packed — this hot dip is melty appetizer heaven and guaranteed to be the first dish to disappear at your next gathering! 🔥🧄🦐
