8 ounces cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup sour cream

1/4 cup BBQ sauce

# Preparation Steps:
01 -
Preheat oven to 425°F. Arrange whole jalapeños on a baking sheet and roast for 15 minutes, turning once halfway, until skins are blistered and blackened. Let cool, then peel off skins, remove stems, and scrape out seeds as desired.
02 -
In a food processor or blender, combine roasted jalapeños, softened cream cheese, sour cream, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, lime juice, salt, and black pepper. Process until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy. If preferred, finely chop the jalapeños and mix vigorously by hand.
03 -
Taste and adjust with additional salt, lime juice, or black pepper as needed for preferred flavor balance.
04 -
Transfer the dip to a serving bowl. Drizzle BBQ sauce on the surface and use a skewer or knife to gently swirl for a marbled pattern.
05 -
Serve immediately, or cover and refrigerate for up to 1 hour to allow flavors to meld and the dip to firm slightly.
