Warm Cheesy Olive Dip
It finally got chilly in San Diego — in the mornings and evenings anyway. I’m taking advantage of it to make allll the warm cheesy fall recipes I can think up. And this one is my new favorite.
This Warm Cheesy Olive Dip started with my love for this Olive Cream Cheese Spread. I knew I wanted to make a warm, gooey, cheesy version for dipping.
This dip combines the traditional olive and cream cheese combo with a ton of delicious Gruyère to create the perfect appetizer dip for all your fall parties. We served it with RW Garcia artisan crackers in Sweet Beet flavor. Enjoy!

- 1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 2 cups shredded Gruyère cheese
- 3/4 cup sliced Spanish olives, plus some extra for topping
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Beat the cream cheese and mayonnaise together. Stir in the Gruyere cheese and olives. Spread the mixture into a 10-inch cast iron skillet (or similar baking dish) and bake 20 minutes or until golden and bubbly. Let cool slightly and serve warm with RW Garcia Artisan Crackers in Sweet Beet flavor.

What could one use as a “spicier” kick to it? I don’t know what peppers you could add to Gruyere that wouldn’t make it “funky”? LOL! I live in a spicy cheese house, I am sorry.
