Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Finely chop the Vidalia onions to ensure they cook evenly and blend smoothly into the dip.
In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, shredded Swiss cheese, and grated Parmesan cheese. Mix until smooth and well-combined.
Stir in the Vidalia onions, garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and ground black pepper. Mix thoroughly to evenly distribute the flavors.
Transfer the mixture into a greased 1-quart baking dish or an 8x8-inch casserole dish. Spread it out evenly with a spatula.
If using breadcrumbs for topping, in a small bowl mix the breadcrumbs with melted butter and sprinkle evenly over the dip.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the dip is bubbly around the edges and the top is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let the dip cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm with crackers, tortilla chips, sliced baguette, or fresh vegetables.
