My version of Boat Dip is so good it may Sink the Boat!

I was looking for new Spring/Summer dip recipe ideas…and came across Boat Dip (one of those viral social media recipes!! A really simple dip you can throw together for a day on/by the water! (or for any reason!) I added a few more ingredients to turn regular Boat Dip into Sink the Boat Dip!

Viral Boat Dip – Original Recipe

  • Sour Cream
  • Taco Seasoning
  • Rotel (Canned diced tomatoes + green chilies)
  • Shredded Cheddar

To Make My Version, I added:

  • Cream Cheese

  • Corn
  • Chives

Sink the Boat Dip

My version of the viral Boat Dip recipe. I add some extra flavorful ingredients that just may Sink the Boat! Cream cheese and sour cream make up the creamy base, then you can add either taco seasoning or ranch seasoning, Rotel tomatoes, corn, bacon, shredded cheddar and chives! Yum! You'll be enjoying this easy to make and flavorful dip all summer long! (Whether or not a boat is involved!)

Prep Time: 15 minutes minutes
Servings: 12

Equipment

  • 1 electric mixer makes it easy to whip up the cream cheese

Ingredients

  • 8 ounces cream cheese (I use Philadelphia brand) Room Temperature
  • 16 ounces sour cream
  • 1 ounce packet ranch or taco seasoning I like both or a combo!
  • 10 ounce can Rotel (diced tomatoes and chilies) drained
  • 11 ounce can corn drained
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar 8-ounce package
  • 1/2 cup cooked and chopped bacon about 8 slices
  • 2 tablespoons sliced chives or green onions

Serve with your favorite dippers! I like tortilla, potato or corn chips!

Instructions 

  • In large bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. I find it helpful to use an electric mixer to get out all the lumps. I use my KitchenAid hand or stand mixer with flex edge beater(s).
  • Add sour cream and mix until smooth. Add all other ingredients and mix until well combined.
  • Refrigerate for several hours or overnight. Can be made 2-3 days in advance.

    Recipe looks pretty good- not something I would eat- especially with the ads of toilet cleaners interspersed!
