Baked Artichoke and Le Gruyère AOP Dip with Crudités and Crackers

Creamy and rich, with the deep, nutty character of aged Le Gruyère AOP and a hint of artichoke, this baked dip will quickly become a favorite. Hiding under the golden, bubbling cheese is a flavorful dip that’s just as good for dunking crisp crudités as it is for scooping up with salty crackers.
