Ingredients
Scale
-
Pickle Chips
- 24 dill pickle hamburger chips
-
Cheese
- 2 cups shredded cheese (such as cheddar or a blend)
-
Seasoning
- 3 tbsp dry ranch seasoning (from a packet)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175ยฐC) to prepare for baking the chips.
- Prepare Pickles: Drain the dill pickle chips and pat them dry thoroughly with paper towels. This will help the cheese crisp up and prevent sogginess.
- Layer Cheese: Using a mini muffin pan, sprinkle about 1 tablespoon of shredded cheese into each tin, creating a base for the chips.
- Add Pickles: Place one dill pickle chip on top of the shredded cheese in each muffin tin.
- Season & Top with Cheese: Evenly sprinkle dry ranch seasoning over each pickle. Then add about ยฝ teaspoon more shredded cheese on top of each chip, ensuring extra cheesy flavor.
- Bake: Place the mini muffin pan in the preheated oven and bake for about 6 minutes or until the cheese turns brown and begins to bubble.
- Cool & Crisp: Remove the pan from the oven and let the chips cool for a few minutes. Then transfer each chip onto a paper towel to allow them to crisp up further as they cool.
- Serve: Enjoy the Cheesy Pickle Chips plain or paired with your favorite dip for added flavor.
Notes
- Best enjoyed fresh out of the oven for maximum crispiness.
- For storage, allow chips to cool completely and keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- To reheat, preheat oven to 350ยฐF and bake chips on a baking sheet for 3-5 minutes until bubbly.
- Make sure to pat pickles very dry before assembling to prevent sogginess.
- Experiment with different shredded cheese blends for unique flavors.
