Artichoke Dip

My mom and I made this delicious (SINFUL!) recipe for a friend’s wedding reception.  It was soooo good!!  We found it on food.com, recipe #18257.
artichoke dip
1 14-oz can Artichokes, drained and chopped
1 cup Mozzarella cheese, grated
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
1 cup Mayonaisse
2 cloves Garlic, crushed
(The recipe indicated you can use 4 cloves if you like garlic)
1 dash Lemon juice
1 Tablespoon Jalapeno pepper, chopped finely
(We seeded the jalapeno, but it must have been an old jalapeno because our mouths were burning!!)
1.  Purée everything in a blender. Or, if you’re cooler than I am, you can use one of those cool puréeing thingies you can use right in the bowl!
2.  Cook on high in microwave for 2 minutes, or bake at 350*F in the oven for 20 minutes.  I think it’s better in the oven, but microwaving is so fast and easy!
3.  Serve hot with crackers, or with cut-up French bread.  Chewy French bread.  Hands down the best of the two options, though crackers are yummy too.
