Step 1
Preheat oven to 350°F. Cut a circle in the top of the 1 sourdough loaf, about 4 inches wide, and pull out the bread inside to make a bowl. Tear the removed bread into chunks for dipping.
Step 2
In a bowl, mix 8 oz cream cheese, 1 cup sour cream, 4 oz of the blue cheese, 2 minced garlic cloves, 2 tbsp chopped chives, and 0.5 tsp black pepper until well combined.
Step 3
Spoon the mixture into the bread bowl and place it on a baking sheet. Sprinkle the remaining 2 oz blue cheese on top.
Step 4
Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the dip is hot and bubbly and the bread edges are golden and crisp.
Step 5
Serve warm with the bread chunks and extra veggies for dipping. The bread bowl will soften as you scoop—enjoy every bit!
