- 8 ounces cream cheese at room temperature
- 4 ounces goat cheese at room temperature
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 14 ounces artichoke hearts in water drained, squeezed dry, coarsely chopped
- 2 jalapeno peppers around 2 inches in length, seeded, deveined and chopped – See Note

- 1 teaspoon chopped garlic
- Dash cayenne pepper or more to taste

In a medium mixing bowl, using a fork mash together the cream cheese, goat cheese and Parmesan cheese. Stir in the artichoke hearts, peppers, onions, garlic and cayenne. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Place mixture in a small saucepan and heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for around 5 to 7 minutes, or until creamy and bubbly hot.
Spoon into a serving bowl and serve immediately, with tortilla chips on the side.
Make ahead: mixture can be prepared but not warmed 3-4 days in advance. Place in an airtight container and refrigerate.
Note on jalapenos: if you like spice, leave some of the veins in. If you leave all of them in, it will be very spicy!
Oven variation: place artichoke-cheese mixture in a shallow greased baking dish and bake at 350 degrees for around 15 to 20 minutes, or until bubbly and heated through. If making ahead, bring to room temperature before baking.
