Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 16 oz Cream cheese
- 6 oz Dried beef
- 1 cup Sour cream
- 3 stalks Green onions
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 1 tsp Onion powder
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, soften the cream cheese by letting it sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes or by microwaving it for 15 seconds.
Chop the dried beef into small, bite-sized pieces and set aside.
Finely slice the green onions, including the tops, for extra flavor and color.
Using a hand mixer or a sturdy spatula, mix the softened cream cheese and sour cream together in the bowl until smooth and evenly combined.
Add the chopped dried beef, sliced green onions, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper to the cream cheese mixture. Stir well to distribute all the ingredients evenly.
Taste the mixture and adjust seasoning if needed, adding a pinch of salt or additional pepper to your preference.
Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and garnish with a sprinkle of green onions or a few small pieces of dried beef.
Serve immediately with crackers, bread slices, or fresh vegetable sticks, or cover and refrigerate it for up to 2 hours before serving for a chilled option.
