How to Make Mississippi Smoked Turkey Sliders

1️⃣ Preheat the Oven

In a large bowl, mix softened cream cheese, cheddar, sour cream, mayo, scallions, hot sauce, Worcestershire, salt, pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder. Stir in chopped bacon.

7️⃣ Serve Warm
Serve immediately while hot and melty. Watch them disappear in minutes!
