Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb ground sausage mild or spicy
  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • 16 oz sour cream
  • 8 oz Velveeta cheese cubed
  • 4 oz shredded Muenster cheese
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp dried sage
  • Salt to taste
  • Fresh chives or parsley for garnish

Equipment

  • Large skillet
  • Mixing Bowl
  • Wooden spoon or silicone spatula
  • Measuring cups and measuring spoons
  • 8x8-inch or similar baking dish
  • Oven
  • Colander or paper towels

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a baking dish.
  2. In a skillet over medium heat, crumble and brown the ground sausage until fully cooked; drain excess grease.
  3. Place softened cream cheese in a large bowl and stir until creamy.
  4. Add sour cream, cubed Velveeta, shredded Muenster, Worcestershire, onion powder, garlic powder, dried sage, and salt; mix until combined and smooth.
  5. Fold in the cooled cooked sausage pieces until evenly distributed.
  6. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and smooth the top with a spatula.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven until the dip is bubbly and lightly golden at the edges, about 45–60 minutes.
  8. Remove from oven and let rest briefly before garnishing with fresh chives.
  9. Serve hot with chips, crackers, or toasted baguette slices.

Notes

Give the dip a few minutes to sit after it comes out of the oven. This helps it thicken slightly, making it easier to scoop and even creamier when served.
 
Cook the sausage until it develops a little golden color around the edges. That extra browning adds a richer, more savory flavor to the finished dip.
