For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the cocktail sauce mixture. To prevent the crackers from becoming soggy, serve the spread immediately after baking. Feel free to experiment with different types of cheese, such as Monterey Jack or pepper jack, for a unique twist. This spread can be prepared ahead of time and refrigerated until ready to bake. Add a few minutes to the baking time if starting from cold.
