This rich and spicy Mexican appetiser combines crumbled chorizo with diced tomatoes and green chiles, cream cheese, and processed cheese. All the ingredients are melted together in a slow cooker, creating a smooth, flavourful dip ideal for sharing. The recipe yields enough for 16 servings and takes roughly 105 minutes from start to finish, with most of that time being hands-off cooking.

Ingredients

10 ounces bulk chorizo sausage
1 (10 ounce) can diced tomatoes with green chile peppers (such as RO*TEL®), drained
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, cubed
1 (8 ounce) package processed cheese (such as Velveeta®), cubed

Method

Place a large skillet on the heat. Cook the chorizo sausage, stirring it, until it is fully browned and broken into crumbles, which will take 5 to 7 minutes. Drain off any excess fat and move the cooked chorizo into your slow cooker.
To the slow cooker, introduce the drained diced tomatoes with chiles, the cubed cream cheese, and the cubed processed cheese. Mix everything thoroughly. Put the lid on and set the cooker to Low. Allow it to cook until the cheeses have completely melted, giving it a stir now and then, for about 1 ½ to 2 hours.
