In a small bowl, mix the chili powder, paprika, and cayenne.
In any CanCooker on a medium-to-medium-low heat source, melt the butter/oil, add the onions, garlic, and jalapeño, and season with salt and pepper.

To the CanCooker, add the cream cheese, sour cream, mayo, and lime juice.
- Mix in all but 2 teaspoons of the mixed seasonings and 1 cup of cheese. Mix until you have a creamy dip, then spread in an even layer. Top with the remaining cheese.
- Set CanCooker to lowest heat setting for 20 minutes, until the cheese has melted.
