Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, cubed
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
- 1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
- 1 (14 ounce) can artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup water (for the Instant Pot)
- Trivet or sling (for pot-in-pot method)
Instructions
- In a medium, oven-safe or heat-safe bowl that fits inside your Instant Pot, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, spinach, artichoke hearts, garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix until just combined.
- Pour 1 cup of water into the inner pot of your Instant Pot. Place the trivet or sling inside the pot.
- Carefully lower the bowl containing the dip mixture onto the trivet.
- Secure the lid on the Instant Pot and set the valve to Sealing.
- Cook on High Pressure for 5 minutes.
- When the cooking time is complete, perform a Quick Release of the pressure.
- Carefully remove the bowl from the Instant Pot using oven mitts. Stir the dip thoroughly until it is completely smooth and creamy.
- Serve immediately with chips, crackers, or bread for dipping.
Notes
- Squeeze as much liquid as possible from the thawed spinach to prevent a watery dip.
- If you prefer a slightly browned top, transfer the finished dip to an oven-safe dish and broil for 1-2 minutes before serving.
- For a thicker dip, reduce the amount of sour cream slightly.
