Ingredients

• 8 oz Cream cheese
• 1 cup Mayonnaise
• 0.5 cup Sour cream
• 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
• 2 Garlic cloves, minced
• 1.5 cups Chopped artichoke hearts (canned or jarred, drained)
• 1 cup Cooked shrimp, chopped
• 1 cup Crab meat (fresh, canned, or imitation)
• 2 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 tbsp Lemon juice
• 1 tsp Hot sauce (optional)
• 0.5 tsp Salt
• 0.25 tsp Black pepper
• 0.25 tsp Paprika (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, soften the cream cheese by allowing it to come to room temperature or microwaving it for 20-30 seconds. Stir until smooth.

Step 3

Add the mayonnaise, sour cream, grated Parmesan cheese, and 3/4 cup of the shredded mozzarella cheese to the cream cheese. Mix until well combined and creamy.

Step 4

Stir in the minced garlic, chopped artichoke hearts, cooked shrimp, crab meat, parsley, lemon juice, and hot sauce (if using). Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Step 5

Transfer the mixture to an oven-safe baking dish (about 1.5-quart size). Spread it evenly and top with the remaining 1/4 cup of mozzarella cheese.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the dip is hot and bubbly and the top is lightly golden.

Step 7

Remove the dish from the oven and sprinkle paprika on top for garnish.

Step 8

Allow the dip to cool slightly before serving. Serve with crackers, sliced baguette, tortilla chips, or fresh vegetable sticks.
