Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz Cream cheese
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
- 1 medium (diced) Yellow onion
- 1 cup (shredded) Cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup (grated) Parmesan cheese
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
- 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
- 0.25 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
- 2 tbsp (optional, for garnish) Chopped chives
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a medium skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for 5-7 minutes, stirring often, until the onion is soft and lightly caramelized. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise. Mix well until smooth and creamy.
Add the shredded cheddar cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and the sautéed onion to the bowl. Stir until all the ingredients are thoroughly combined.
Transfer the mixture to an oven-safe baking dish and spread it out evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the dip is hot and bubbly with a golden-brown top.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped chives, if desired, before serving.
Serve warm with crackers, toasted baguette slices, or vegetable sticks for dipping.
