Equipment

Ingredients

  • 32 oz Broccoli Frozen Florets
  • ½ cup Water to steam the broccoli

  • ¼ teaspoon Black pepper
  • 8 oz Cream cheese softened
  • 8 oz Sour cream
  • 1 packet Ranch Dressing mix about 2 tablespoons of dry mix

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  • Fill a large microwave safe bowl with the frozen broccoli and season with salt and pepper. Cover with plastic wrap, leaving a gap as a vent.

  • Microwave for 6 minutes, or until tender, stirring halfway. Remove and drain the broccoli. Place the drained broccoli in the bottom of the baking dish.
  • In a large bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, and dry ranch dressing mix. Beat until smooth and creamy.

  • Stir in half the shredded cheddar cheese until well combined.
    2 cup Cheddar cheese
  • Scoop the cream cheese mixture on top of the broccoli in the casserole dish, spreading around to create an even layer. Top with the remaining half of the shredded cheese.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and the edges are slightly golden brown. Let cool slightly to set up before serving. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Don't overcook the broccoli: The broccoli should be tender-crisp, not mushy.
  • Use room temperature cream cheese: This will ensure a smooth and creamy sauce.
  • Broil for extra browning: For an extra crispy top, broil the casserole on high for a minute or two at the end of baking. Watch it closely to avoid burning.
