Ingredients

2 (8 oz.) packages cream cheese room temperature
1 cup mayonnaise
1 cup shredded Mexican cheese blend
1 (4 oz.) can chopped green chilis (do not drain)
1 (4 oz.) can sliced jalapeños (do not drain) – double if you like heat (pickled or plain)

1 cup Parmesan cheese, divided
1/4 cup butter melted

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°F.
In a food processor, add cream cheese, mayonnaise, Mexican cheese, green chiles, jalapeños, and 1/2 cup of the Parmesan cheese. Spread the mixture into a greased 2-quart casserole dish (8x8, 9x9 or 11x7).

In a bowl, mix bread crumbs and the remaining 1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese. Pour melted butter over the crumb mixture and mix well.
1 cup panko bread crumbs, 1 cup Parmesan cheese, divided, 1/4 cup butter
Sprinkle the crumb mixture evenly over the dip and bake for about 20 minutes. The top should be browned and the dip bubbling on the edges when it's finished. (Do not overheat or the mayonnaise will separate, and a grease puddle will form in the middle of your dip.)
Serve with tortilla chips, buttery crackers, or sliced French baguette.
