Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 slices Bacon
- 8 ounces Cream cheese
- 1 cup Sour cream
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 3 stalks Green onions, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 bag Potato chips or crackers (for serving)
Instructions
Preheat a skillet over medium heat.
Cook the bacon slices in the skillet until crispy, about 7-10 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain and cool.
Once cooled, crumble the bacon into small pieces and set aside.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese and sour cream. Mix until smooth and well blended.
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, garlic powder, and black pepper.
Gently fold in the crumbled bacon (reserve a small handful for garnish) and chopped green onions.
Transfer the mixture to a serving bowl and smooth the top with a spatula.
Sprinkle the reserved crumbled bacon and a few extra green onion slices on top for garnish.
Refrigerate the dip for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld, or serve immediately if preferred.
Serve the dip with potato chips or crackers on the side for dipping. Enjoy!
