85 Delicious Party Dips That Will Get More Attention Than The Game (1)

Super Bowl is THIS Sunday, so it’s time to start planning for the life of your party: dips, ofc! Savory, spicy, and sweet dips are always the star of the show, especially during football season when you need delicious, flavorful appetizers and snacks that don’t take a ton of work (or forethought). Check out our favorite dips for ideas, then grab a bag of your favorite chips and your favorite spot on the couch—these will guarantee your guests are well-fed without you having to spend all your time in the kitchen on game day.

Okay, okay, it’s true that no game day party is complete without more involved things like chicken wings, nachos, and sliders, but we implore you to fill out your spread with at least one dip, for your and your guests’ sakes. The only thing worse than no snacks at a party is serving only the kind of snacks that require extra plates and utensils, constant refills, and maneuvering around an app table trying not to spill your beer (or touchdown punch, perhaps?). Dips are the perfect happy medium. They’re relatively hands-off, they’re major crowd-pleasers, and the only serving implement you have to worry about is what kind of chips or crudités you’ll pair alongside them.

Plus, you’re going to loooove being known as the friend who takes dips to new levels. We’ve got classics like , 7-layer, refried bean, and Buffalo chicken, of course, but we’re extra proud of the ones that push the flavor envelope even further. Check out our Nashville hot chicken dip, our Funfetti dip, our cheesy mini meatball skillet dip, our cannoli dip, and more to see what we mean. Hot tip: Dips are always a welcome potluck dish in lieu of casseroles or beverages (or ice, no shade if you’re that person!).

Sour Cream & Onion Dip

Letting the onions caramelize properly is key to the flavor of this dip. Going low and slow allows them to develop color while breaking down and becoming sweet and jammy. Stir them into this easy dip with some chives, and you have a simple appetizer that's wildly delicious.
