Burning Desire Artichoke Dip

Hot (both spice and temperature-wise) artichoke dip. The original recipe came from a pamphlet for d'Oni Enterprises (http://www.d-0ni.com/) that I picked up at a Fiery Foods show in Austin, TX. The original recipe calls for d'Oni Burning Desire sauce, which is very good, but I've also used other hot sauces for it. Depending on the heat of the sauce, I'll use anywhere from 1 teaspoon to 1 tablespoon, so adjust to taste. Also, if you can find them, get diced Hatch green chiles.
